A
Well,
welcome
to
the
city
of
bellevue
council
meeting
for
october
25th
2021
it's
game
night
and
we're
all
doing
our
best
to
support.
While
we
do
the
important
business
of
the
city
city
clerk,
could
you
please
do
the
roll
call?
Yes,
thank
you
mayor
robinson.
C
C
D
E
E
B
A
You
deputy
mayor,
is
there
a
motion
to
approve
the
agenda.
A
B
B
B
Okay,
we
will
circle
back
to
mr
dorsett.
I
do
not
see
any
hands
the
next
three
sequential
speakers
have
signed
up
as
a
group
and
each
will
be
allotted
their
three-minute
time.
They
have
a
presentation
to
go
with
their
speaking
points.
I
will
be
tracking
their
time
separately
and
we'll
start
their
presentation
and
call
the
first
speaker
who
is
salman
taj.
Mr
tosh,
can
you
hear
me.
H
Okay,
very
good,
thank
you
very
much
and
thanks
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
the
council
today,
my
name
is
salman
taj
and
I
would
like
to
bring
your
attention
to
the
growth
of
the
sport
of
cricket
in
our
region,
especially
east
side,
bellevue
included.
If
you
could
go
to
the
next
slide,
please.
H
Yeah,
as
you
could
see,
I
think
cricket
is
the
second
most
popular
sport
in
the
world,
and
it's
no
different
in
in
our
region
as
well
as
you
could
see
from
the
slide.
There
are
number
of
people,
whether
it's
adults,
whether
it's
youth,
we
have
around
600
cricketers
in
the
city
right
now,
playing
cricket
very
actively
500
and
more
than
500
youth
cricketers
playing
cricket
as
well.
More
than
2
000
people
playing
recreationally,
including
women
and
and
kids,
and
then
there
are
a
lot
of
games
that
are
happening
across
the
region.
H
We
are
also
having
a
very
professional
first
time
ever.
A
cricket
team
representing
seattle
called
seattle,
thunderbolts
and
I'll
talk
about
it
a
little
later
in
general,
there
is
a
lot
of
activity
in
the
in
the
in
the
city
in
the
region
when
it
comes
to
cricket
and
it's
growing,
we
have
almost
it's.
The
amount
of
kids,
especially
the
youth,
which
are
who
are
playing
cricket,
is
doubling
every
year.
H
If
I
look
at
the
last
two
years,
there
will
be
multiple
academies
in
the
region
and
there
are
three
main
adult
leagues,
as
well
as
youth
leagues
that
are
being
run
in
the
city
right
now
in
general.
The
main
message
is
that
cricket
is
growing
in
the
entire
country
of
the
us
and
it's
no
different
in
seattle
region
as
well.
Let's
go
to
the
next
slide
piece
and
if
you
want
to
look
at
how
our
kids
from
seattle
are
doing
nationally,
this
is
a
good
metric
to
look
at
mlc.
H
Major
league
cricket
runs
national
tournaments
throughout
the
year,
and
almost
20
cities
are
represented
in
those
tournaments.
Almost
thousand
kids
come
and
play
in
various
age
categories:
u11
u13,
15,
17
and
19.,
and
if
you
could
see
from
the
slide
this
year
in
2021,
seattle
was
number
one
in
three
age
categories
and
two
age
categories
number
two
in
one
and
number
six
in
in
u17,
and
this
shows
that
our
kids
are
doing
really
really
well
at
a
national
level
and
that's
amazing.
H
But
you
could
notice
that
you
19,
our
kids
are
not
there,
and
one
of
the
key
reasons
for
that
to
be
happening
is
because
of
the
kind
of
infrastructure
our
kids
are
playing
at.
If
you
look
at
exa
and
as
an
example
robinswood
park
in
belgium,
city
has
a
great
ground
for
cricket,
but
the
pitch
there
is
as
hard
concrete
with
matt
on
top
and
that's
not
how
real
cricket
is
played.
H
H
Time,
thank
you
for
the
time.
I
just
wanted
to
see
that
if
we
can
get
good
infrastructure
and
better
grounds
for
our
kids
and
for
the
graham
cricket,
thank
you.
B
I
Let's
go
so
next
slide,
please,
so
our
talented
kids
are
really
looking
forward
to
playing
professionally
in
these
three
organizations.
One
is
the
u.s
certificate,
which
is
our
national
governing
body.
The
second
is
major
league
cricket,
so
just
like
major
league
baseball
major
league
cricket
is
starting
and
starting
next
year
and
minor
league
cricket
which
started
this
year
and
seattle
thunderbolts
was
one
of
them
in
there,
but
they
don't
have
the
right
infrastructure
to
play
in
to
kind
of
get
to
that
level.
I
Yet,
right
next
slide
and
next
year,
when
major
league
city
cricket
is
going
to
start,
seattle
is
one
of
the
seven
cities
being
considered
to
give
a
team.
So
six
cities
will
get
a
team.
Seattle
has
been
targeted
as
one
of
the
cities
that
will
probably
get
a
team.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide,
we'll
see
that
seattle,
team's
ownership
is
very
strong.
We've
got
satya,
narella
and
soma
zoom,
shaker
out
here
out,
were
saunders
owners
of
part
owners
of
saunders
and
ceo
of
microsoft
and
managing
director
at
madrona.
I
But
for
that
we
need
infrastructure
to
make
happen.
So
if
you
go
to
the
next
slide,
what
I
have
here
is
hagley
over
hagley
oval
is
in
crisis
newsline,
which
is
the
perfect
cricket
community
park.
It
is
infrastruct
light
if
you
look
at
it,
there's
just
a
small
pavilion
out
there
and
there's
just
banks
around
the
pitch
and
people
just
sit
on
the
embankments
and
watch
cricket
and
they
enjoy
cricket
like
that
and
in
2015.
I
We
want
something
like
this
here
and
which
is
where
the
next
slide
is,
and
that
is
where
we
see
that
the
bellevue
owned
land
in
mannymore
park
is
suited
perfectly
for
this
it'll
be
a
perfect
community
park
where
cricket
can
be
played,
world
cup
can
be
hosted,
concerts
can
be
had,
soccer
can
be
played
and
kids
can
just
have
fun
running
around,
and
that
is
the
part
that
we're
talking
about
to
kind
of
see.
You
know
we
need
support
from
all
of
you
to
see.
I
J
B
K
K
Hi
bellevue
council,
my
name,
is,
will
swann
the
last
two
years.
I've
led
the
infrastructure
projects
for
for
major
league
cricket
across
the
us.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
a
little
bit
about.
I
guess
what
juggern
touched
on
we've
been
working
closely
with
hks,
who
are
an
architectural
firm
that
has
built
stadiums
from
sophie
stadium,
optus
stadium
in
australia,
all
the
way
down
to
minor
league
baseball
and
smaller
soccer
venues.
K
So
they
have
a
lot
of
prestige
and
I
guess
the
sporting
landscape
we've
worked
with
them
on
a
number
of
kind
of
key
design
principles.
I
think
you
know
the
most
important
thing
is
to
recognize
that
our
venues
are
able
to
host
the
top
tier
of
international
cricket
like
the
world
cup,
but
we
also
recognize
that
there
is
a
need
for
them
to
be.
I
guess
centers
of
community
places
for
for
community
events
and
concerts
and
to
have
a
multi-use
purpose
beyond
just
holding
high
level
and
high
standing
qriket
events.
K
So
these
key
design
features
are
part
of
you
know
what
we
hope
to
bring
to
murraymore
park
and
and
have
a
utilization
of
this
venue
beyond.
Just
cricket,
if
I
go
to
the
next
slide
as
well,
please
you
know
in
terms
of
what
we've
been
doing
as
jargon
mentioned,
there
are
six
cities
that
will
be
the
founding
members
of
major
league
cricket
across
the
u.s.
Over
the
last
two
years,
we've
been
heavily
engaged
with
a
number
of
cities
from
from
california,
texas,
all
the
way
to
the
east
coast.
K
In
these
I
guess
processes
we've
dealt
with
a
number
of
different
cities
and
counties
and
municipalities
that
have
built
up,
I
think,
a
strong
level
of
experience
and
expertise
in
in
going
through
this
process.
K
You
know
these
projects
have
ranged
from
from
larger
stadiums
that
we're
building
down
in
texas,
public
partnerships
as
well
as
new
builds
and
existing
renovations
and
upgrades
of
existing
facilities.
So
you
know,
I
think,
we've
built
up
and
certainly
had
the
experience
and
understand.
I
guess
some
of
the
the
needs
and
requirements
not
just
for
us,
but
as
well
as
for
the
municipalities
that
we
deal
with
to
make
sure
these
venues
get
used
as
much
as
possible.
K
You
know
for
cricket
as
well
as
outside
of
cricket.
If
you
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
you
know
one
project,
you
know
that
I
think
is,
is
a
real
flagship
for
us
and
a
little
bigger
than
you
know.
What's
in
planned
at
marymore
park
is
our
stadium
down
in
grand
prairie
in
dallas,
we've
taken
a
long
term
lease
on
a
minor
league
baseball
stadium
down
there.
K
You
know
spending
a
significant
amount
to
upgrade
that
to
be
a
seven
and
a
half
thousand
capacity,
which
will
be
a
kind
of
key
location,
that'll
help
us
bring
the
world
cup
and
major
international
matches
into
the
us.
So
I
think
you
know
our
plans
at
marymore
park.
You
know
to
support
qriket
in
the
us
and
bring
these
international
games
is
incredibly
important.
You
know
we
definitely
look
forward
to
working
with
you
all,
and
I
really
hope
that
you'll
support
this.
K
So
so
we
can
bring
like,
I
said,
not
just
major
international
cricket
to
seattle,
but
also
enhance
the
park
and
community
elements.
You
know
that'll
also
be
used
for.
K
B
L
Thank
you
good
evening,
mayor
council
members
on
behalf
of
the
bellevue
downtown
association
located
at
10900
northeast
fourth
street
bellevue,
washington,
nine,
eight,
zero,
zero
four.
I
say
that
because
we
moved
offices
recently
we're
very
excited.
I
wish
to
convey
support
for
a
pair
of
comprehensive
plan
amendments
under
consideration
later
tonight.
L
This
is
this
outcome
is
consistent
with
the
wilburton
vision
and
the
city's
housing
goals,
and
it
provides
daesh
the
certainty
and
initiative
to
jump-start
its
work
early,
especially
with
the
wilberton
rezone
process
forthcoming.
These
are
great
outcomes
for
everybody
and
then,
regarding
the
proposed
transportation
elements.
We
support
this
update
for
two
key
reasons:
number
one.
These
policy
updates
support,
belby's
ongoing
work
to
complete
the
mobility
implementation
plan
by
allowing
the
city
to
examine
and
consider
a
wider
range
of
mobility
options
and
number
two.
L
Shifting
to
a
multimodal
policy,
standard
policy
and
standard
is
a
big
change
for
the
city
and
we
plan
to
track
its
progress
for
unintended
consequences
and
ensure
it
considers
emerging
modes.
But
overall
we
see
this
update
as
a
strong
move
for
the
city
and
its
ability
to
more
accurately
address
and
account
for
the
true
impacts
of
all
trips,
as
well
as
prepare
and
accommodate
for
future
growth.
M
Well,
that's
going
on.
Thank
you,
mayor
robertson
and
the
council
for
holding
this
discussion
on
the
comprehensive
plan
amendments
this
evening.
That's
item
21
700
on
your
on
your
agenda
tonight.
M
My
name
is
victor
bishop
and
I
am
representing
the
east
side:
transportation
association,
I'm
the
legislative
chair
of
eta
and
I'm
here
to
support
the
recommendation
of
the
planning
commission
related
to
relieving
congestion.
The
mining
commission
has
recommended
to
the
council
that
it
retained
the
concept
of
relieved
congestion
in
the
comprehensive
plan.
M
M
Striving
to
reduce
congestion
is
consistent
with
the
multi-multi
policy
changes
to
the
transportation
element
recommended
by
the
planning.
Commission.
There's
no
inconsistency
here.
In
may
of
this
year,
the
council
approved
the
transportation
implement
implementation
plan.
It
has
69
local
city
projects
that
would
increase
capacity.
M
In
addition
to
the
city,
citip
washdot
has
13
identified
projects
on
I-405
in
or
approaching
bellevue
that
will
increase
capacity.
There
is
no
lack
of
projects
to
reduce
congestion.
You
will
hear
tonight
potentially
that,
oh,
we
can't
do
anything
more,
that's
nonsense.
We
got
69
projects
on
the
on
the
list
that
you
approved,
that
will
increase
capacity.
M
M
M
M
We
at
eta
request
that
the
council
council
retained
the
language
of
tr2,
which
says
strive
to
reduce
congestion.
Thank
you
very
much
and
look
forward
to
your
conversation.
N
You
so
much
so
I'm
actually
speaking,
not
on
an
item
on
the
agenda,
but
towards
a
recommendation
that
the
city
looks
into
the
decriminalization
of
psychedelic
substances
and
ethiogens.
N
Although
you
may
seem
to
think
that
drug
use
makes
drug
use
worse,
there
are
classes
of
drugs
that
are
anti-addiction
and
so
psychedelics
should
be
looked
at
for
those
purposes.
In
that
vein,
texas
has
recently
legalized
the
research
into
these
compounds
to
treat
veterans
and
drug
addicts.
If
the
state
of
texas
can
be
doing
this,
then
why
is
washington
state
lagging
behind?
N
N
Instead,
we
can
move
towards
legalizing
and
decriminalizing
items
that
not
only
are
not
harmful
but
can
be
beneficial,
and
so
I
believe
that
bellevue
should
pass
a
proposition
similar
or
sorry
a
initiative
where
I
guess
actually
the
word
would
be
proposal
to
legalize
or
decriminalize
psychedelic
substances.
Seattle
recently
passed
such
an
a
ordinance
or
and
they're
working
on
that
now,
oakland
has
already
done
the
same
thing.
N
Similarly,
these
items
are
also
used
traditionally
in
religions
which
predate
christianity.
If
we
during
prohibition
of
alcohol
could
create
carveouts
to
allow
religious
groups
to
use
alcohol
and
ceremonies,
then
it
is
only
prejudice
rather
than
logic.
It
dictates
that
we
keep
psychedelics
illegal
and
instead
continue
prohibition.
N
So
if
items
such
as
ayahuasca,
which
the
supreme
court
of
the
united
states
has
deemed
is
protected
for
religion
is
not
protected
currently
in
bellevue
or
by
the
washington
state.
However,
I
believe
a
court
case
taking
this
to
the
washington
state
supreme
court
would
rule
that
it
was
protected.
New
hampshire
just
ruled
their
supreme
court,
the
same
thing
that
their
definition,
which
pretty
much
mirrors
washington
state's
definition
for
religious
protection,
requires
that
psychedelics
be
allowed
for
religion.
B
Psychedelics,
thank
you,
mr
helldress.
That
is
the
end
of
our
pre-registered
list.
At
this
point,
we
do
have
a
few
minutes
left
of
oral
communications.
If
there
is
anyone
connected
to
this
call
who
would
like
to
make
oral
communication
to
the
council,
please
use
the
raise
hand,
function
or
star
9.
If
you're
connected
with
a
phone,
I
should
say
that
we
have
reached
the
three
people
in
support
of
qriket,
so
it
cannot
be
on
that
topic.
B
A
B
A
F
Well,
to
answer
your
question,
one
as
part
of
the
parks
and
open
space
plan.
Qriket
is
one
of
the
sports,
that's
inc,
that
is
named
in
the
plan.
I
I
don't
believe,
though,
that
the
parts
and
open
space
plan
directly
lines
up
with
the
timing
that
they
may
be
interested
in
for
that
space.
So
if
we
were
interested
in
entertaining
that,
I
think
we
would
have
to
direct
the
parks
board
to
initiate
some
work.
Looking
at
that
in
more
detail,
mr.
A
O
B
P
Thank
you,
so
I'm
interested
in
having
that
conversation.
I
was
looking
at
the
size
of
cricket
pitches
they're
about
the
size
of
about
more
than
two
football
fields
and
more
than
two
little
league
fields,
so
they're
really
big.
P
So
before
we
would
initiate
the
work,
I
would
want
staff
to
at
least
look
and
see
if
we
have
any
land
that
is
the
right
size
before
we
and
also
to
understand
the
parks
board's
work
plan
to
make
sure
that
we
can
fit
this
in
because
remember
at
last
monday's
meeting,
we
just
initiated
a
remaster
plan
of
at
airfield
park,
which
I'm
hoping
will
be
fast
tracked,
and
so
before
we
throw
another
thing
on
there,
I'd
want
to
understand
how
it
fit
together.
P
I
absolutely
think
that
we
should
try
to
find
a
way
to
make
qriket
available
in
bellevue,
but
on
the
other
hand,
I
just
need
to
know
more,
I'm
not
ready
to
do
it
on
a
head
nod.
That's
all
they.
A
They've
been
working
on
this
for
over
a
year,
so
I'm
going
to
not
discuss
this
any
longer
and
we
will
just
move
it
to
next
meeting
where
we
can
have
a
discussion
of
it.
Then,
okay,
thank
you.
Is
there
a
motion
to
approve
the
consent,
calendar.
E
E
A
Any
opposed
all
right,
so
we
have.
I
think
three
study
session
items
are
for
study
session
items
tonight.
Mr
miyaki,
would
you
like
to
introduce.
A
Okay,
councilmember
lee,
can
you
hear
me.
B
A
B
O
Okay,
sir
sure,
good
evening,
robinson
council
members,
as
you
mentioned,
we
have
four
study
session
topics
this
evening
and
the
first
study
session
item
on
your
agenda
is
the
proposed
residential
occupancy
land
use
code
amendment
to
remove
occupancy
limits
for
unrelated
adults
from
the
land
use
code
and
just
by
way
of
background,
this
landis
quote:
amendment
is
in
response
to
recent
state
legislation
senate
bill
5235,
which
addressed
local
authority
to
limit
the
number
of
unrelated
persons
residing
within
a
dwelling.
O
Tonight
staff
is
looking
for
council
direction
to
bring
this
matter
back
for
formal
adoption
at
a
future
meeting
joining
us
this
evening
is
mike
brennan
as
well
as
trisna,
tannis
and
caleb
miller,
all
from
the
development
services
department,
as
well
as
our
planning
chair
planning,
commission
chair
mohammed,
malcolm
excuse
me
for
mispronouncing
your
name
and
with
that
I'm
going
to
hand
it
over
to
mike
to
begin
the
presentation.
Q
Thank
you,
mr
miyaki.
Just
a
couple
of
quick
opening
comments
and
then
I'll
hand
it
over
to
chris
nathanis
and
caleb
miller
they'll
give
the
staff
report.
This
is
a
code
of
amendment
land
use
code,
amendment
that
would
limit
or
address
resident
residential
occupancy
limits.
Q
It
would
remove
the
limits
that
are
currently
in
place
as
required
to
comply
with
direction
under
state
law
that
was
initiated
in
july
of
20.
On
july,
25th
council
will
recall
that
there
is
an
interim
official
control
ordinance
in
place
currently
to
address
this
issue
within
the
code,
and
this
is
advancing
the
permanent
languages
code
amendment
for
future
co-development,
so
I
will
hand
it
over
to
there's
matanus,
who
will
walk
through
the
staff
report
with
caleb
miller,
tristan.
D
Thank
you
mike
next
slide,
please
good
evening,
mayor,
robinson,
deputy
mayor
noon,
house,
council
members
for
action
tonight.
We
are
asking
a
council
to
direct
staff
to
finalize
the
lucca
ordinance
for
final
action
at
a
future
meeting.
Next
slide,
please
for
our
agenda
on
our
staff
report.
D
We
will
then
explain
the
components
of
the
proposed
luca
and
then
describe
the
public
engagement
as
well
as
the
process
that
we've
been
following
for
this
luca.
We'll
then
turn
the
presentation
to
planning
commission
chair
malaccuchen
to
present
the
planning
commission
recommendation
next
slide.
Please.
D
The
bill
was
codified
as
a
new
section
in
the
rcw,
specifically
rcw,
35a
21314,
and
states
that
a
city
may
not
regulate
or
limit
the
number
of
unrelated
persons
that
may
occupy
a
household
or
dwelling
unit
other
than
occupant
limits
on
group
living
arrangements
or
short-term
rentals
or
limits
in
that
are
generally
applicable.
Health
and
safety
provisions.
D
The
land
use
code
also
limited
occupancy
of
other
dwellings
such
as
adus
and
rooming
houses
to
quickly
and
timely
conform.
The
city's
regulations,
the
council
did
adopt
the
ioc
on
july
12
and
held
a
public
hearing
on
august
2nd
on
august.
2Nd
council
also
initiated
development
of
permanent
regulations
to
be
processed
by
the
planning
commission.
D
If
council
does
adopt
this
permanent
luca
that
are
in
front
of
you
tonight,
it
will
replace
the
interim
official
control
next
slide.
Please,
at
council's
initiation
of
this
luca
and
after
that
initiation
staff
began
a
review
of
the
regulations
both
in
the
bellevue
city
codes,
as
well
as
the
land
use
code
that
applied
to
dwelling
units,
both
single-family
and
multi-family
units
for
reference
and
context.
We
wanted
to
let
council
know
of
these
regulations.
D
D
The
building
code
also
requires
in
that
improvements
such
as
converting
a
garage
into
living
space
or
adding
a
bedroom,
for
instance,
must
be
permitted
and
inspected
to
ensure
safety
measures
have
been
taken.
Unpermitted
construction
is
considered
a
violation
and
code
compliance
can
take
actions
to
require
corrections
of
those
that
violation.
D
The
city
also
has
a
number
of
other
codes,
such
as
the
uniform
housing
code,
which
council
may
remember,
was
incorporated
into
the
bellevue
city
code
as
its
own
chapter.
The
uniform
housing
code
has
standards.
This
is
for
adequate
sanitation
facilities,
heat
light
and
air.
The
city
also
has
health
and
safety
codes,
including
noise
control
code
to
minimize
the
harmful
effects
of
excessive
noise
and
nuisance
code
that
prohibits
nuisance
and
trash
accumulation.
D
Additionally,
the
transportation
right-of-way
codes
have
regulations
pertaining
to
parking
and
traffic
on
public
streets.
These
codes
of
their
record,
their
requirements
are
remaining
unchanged
so
that
they
can
continue
to
protect
health
and
safety.
Also,
the
city
has
a
few
land
use
provisions
that
are
relevant
to
residential
dwellings.
D
These
land
use
code
requirements
also
are
remaining
and
are
not
changing
next
slide.
Please,
with
that,
I'm
going
to
turn
the
presentation
over
to
kayla
miller,
who
will
provide
more
information
on
that
single
family
rental
ordinance
and
then
the
this
narrowly
scoped
components
of
this
recommended
luca
and
in
the
engagement
process
that
we've
been
following.
Caleb.
R
Mayor
of
deputy
mayor
and
members
of
the
city
council,
so,
as
just
mentioned
ordinance
number
6223,
also
known
as
the
single
family
rental
ordinance,
was
adopted
in
2015
and
imposed
certain
new
requirements
such
as
to
reduce
the
number
of
unrelated
adults
who
can
be
considered
a
family
from
six
to
four.
R
It
also
established
regulations
for
rooming
houses,
which
are
basically
dwelling
units
rented
on
an
individual
room
basis
and
are
not
owner
occupied.
Under
this
ordinance,
these
uses
were
limited
to
no
more
than
four
rooms
being
rented
to
no
more
than
five
adults
at
any
one
time
and
finally,
asterism
noted
transient.
Lodging
regulations
were
also
established
as
part
of
this
gluca,
including
regulations
for
boarding
houses
and
bed
and
breakfasts,
which
are
owner
occupied
dwellings
with
rooms
rented
out
to
other
people.
R
Additionally,
short-term
vacation,
rentals
or
transient
lodging
have
a
requirement
to
obtain
a
home
occupation
permit
when,
in
a
single
family
home
under
this
land
disco
amendment,
most
of
these
provisions
will
remain
in
place.
The
proposed
amendments
are
really
intended
to
be
targeted
and
narrow.
R
In
scope
and
are
only
meant
to
address
the
occupancy
limitations,
specifically
called
out
in
sb5235,
which
brings
us
to
the
next
slide
so
to
go
through
the
different
components
of
the
seleuca
staff,
are
proposing
the
following:
first:
to
remove
the
limitation
on
the
number
of
unrelated
adults
who
can
be
considered
a
family,
and
this
is
provided
that
they
still
operate
as
a
single
housekeeping
unit,
which
means
that
all
occupants
of
a
dwelling
must
have
access
to
the
entire
home
and
share
generally
the
responsibilities
upkeep
and
so
on
of
the
of
the
dwelling.
R
I
will
note
the
single
housekeeping
unit
definition
did
previous
prior
to
the
ioc,
had
a
requirement
for
all
occupants
to
be
on
a
single
lease.
This
does
constitute
regulation
of
occupancy
and
so
is
proposed
to
be
removed
from
this
definition.
R
In
addition,
there
are
a
few
specific
housing
uses
that
have
their
own
occupancy
limits,
which
are
proposed
to
be
removed.
First,
the
chapter
on
accessory
dwelling
unit
regulations
pointed
to
the
family
definition
that
we've
mentioned,
so
this
is
proposed
to
be
removed,
boarding
houses
and
bed
and
breakfasts,
as
I
noted,
are
limited
to
two
people
at
most.
This
is
still
applicable
in
transient
lodging
situations,
but
we
are
proposing
that
for
any
non-transient
or
more
than
30
day
durations
of
stay,
there
is
no
occupancy
limit
because
it's
just
a
permanent
residency
at
that
point.
R
However,
the
remainder
of
regulations
in
place
for
rooming
houses
that
were
adopted
under
ordinance
6223
are
to
remain
in
place,
such
as
minimum
parking
requirements
of
one
stall
per
room
being
rented
and
a
maximum
of
four
bedrooms
that
can
be
rented
at
any
one
time
again.
These
amendments
are
really
intended
to
be
narrow
in
scope
and
keep
in
place
as
many
of
the
existing
regulations
for
intensity,
health
and
safety
as
allowable
under
state
law.
R
Bellevue
residents
are
encouraged
to
continue
reporting
possible
code
violations,
even
if
you
aren't
sure
it
is
a
violation.
You
are
encouraged
to
report
these
one
way
to
do
this
is
using
the
myvalue
app
once
something
is
reported.
It
is
routed
to
the
appropriate
department
to
investigate,
for
instance,
code
compliance
will
respond
to
violations
related
to
private
property
and
development.
R
So
moving
on
this
luca
included
two
primary
modes
of
public
outreach.
The
first
are
the
standard
process,
four
requirements
for
lucas,
which
included
the
notice
of
application
required
public
hearings,
as
well
as
noticing
for
those
public
hearings,
and
to
this
point
we
have
had
one
public
hearing
with
the
planning
commission,
as
well
as
a
courtesy
public
hearing
with
the
east
bellevue
community
council.
R
Staff
contact
information
was
also
included,
so
people
may
provide
comments
to
staff,
and
at
this
time
one
public
comment
has
been
received
by
staff.
The
commenter
expressed
concerns
over
increased
activity,
parking
demand
and
traffic
as
a
result
of
the
silica
and
response
staff
did
point
back
to
the
existing
codes
and
regulations
that
we've
discussed
that
are
in
place
to
address
many
of
those
concerns.
R
Next,
this
is
a
schedule
of
the
lucas
progression
and
looking
forward,
the
luca
is
anticipated
to
be
adopted
prior
to
the
expiration
of
the
ioc
ordinance
on
january
12th.
But
of
course,
council
does
have
the
ability
to
extend
it
if
necessary.
R
As
I
noted,
the
ebcc
did
hold
a
courtesy
hearing
on
october
5th
during
this
hearing,
members
of
the
public
did
attend
and
provide
comments
related
to
overcrowding
and
parking
concerns.
R
T
T
T
T
R
Thank
you,
chair,
and
so
with
that
staff
is
seeking
direction
to
prepare
the
luca
ordinance
for
final
action
at
a
future
meeting
and
I'll
pass
it
back
to
the
mayor.
A
Okay,
thank
you
very
much
and
chair
malikushian.
Thank
you
so
much
for
being
here
tonight
and
if
we
have
questions
for
you,
we
will
ask
you
so
I'm
going
to
let
council
member
barksdale
begin
since
he
is
liaison
to
the
planning
commission
and
then
followed
by
robertson,
stokes
liaison
deputy
mayor
and
myself
so
councilmember
barksdale.
U
Thank
you
mayor.
No
questions
just
want
to
thank
the
commission
and
I
support
the
commission's
recommendation.
P
Righty
so
yeah,
thank
you
for
the
work
so
chairmalakushan.
I
don't
see
you
on
the
screen,
other.
You
are
there's
too
many
people
on
here
I
had
when
we.
When
this
came
to
counseling
we
did
the
ioc.
I
had
questions
and
comments
to
staff
about
occupies
and
limitations
because
we
don't
have
any
in
our
residential
code
and
many
many
cities,
don't
they're,
not
international
fire
code.
P
I
did
find
in
the
international
property
maintenance
code
that
there
is
occupancy
limitations,
which
I
thought
were
very
helpful
there
for
the
public,
health
and
safety,
and
I
asked
staff
to
bring
that
to
the
planning
commission.
So
my
question
is:
did
the
planning
commission
have
the
opportunity
to
look
at
the
the
standards
in
the
international
property
maintenance
code
on
occupancy?
P
D
So,
thank
you,
councilmember
robertson
for
that
question.
So
we
do
recall
your
question
during
the
ioc
discussions
on
suggesting
the
the
international
property
maintenance
code
provisions
relating
to
occupancy
limits
in
that
code.
D
As
you
know,
the
ipmc,
the
international
property
maintenance
code
is
not
a
code
that
is
part
of
the
bellevue
city
code.
The
city
does
not
have
that
in
place
and
our
consideration
of
that
seemed
we.
We
were
thinking
that
it
would
make
sense
to
look
at
that
more
holistically.
If,
when
we
do
look
at
the
ipmc
for
incorporation
into
the
city
code,
the
ipmc
did
have
a
kind
of
number
of
occupants
per
square
foot.
That
is
the
the
governor
that
they
have
in
there.
D
We
also
looked
at
that
in
in
the
context
of
administration
and
enforcement
of
that
those
set
of
provisions,
and
we
felt
that
it
would
be
there
could
be
challenges
with
doing
that
as
a
kind
of
as
a
one-off
and
not
including
the
more
comprehensive
look
and
analysis
of
the
ipmc
as
a
whole.
P
All
right,
so
I
support
the
revisions,
but
I
support
the
revisions,
but
I
would
also
like
to
see
additional
occupancy
limitations.
I
understand
these
limitations
are
just
for
adus
rooming
houses,
boarding,
houses
and
bmvs,
but
but
when
you
have
a
room
that
can
be
with
two
adults
and
any
number
of
minor
children,
you
literally
could
have
120
square
foot
room
with
10
people
in
it
and
that
is
not
safe
and
that
is
not
healthy,
and
so
the
international
property
maintenance
code,
section
404,
which
has
been
adopted.
P
I
know
it's
not
a
mandatory
adopted
code,
but
a
lot
of
cities
have
who
have
standards
for
occupancy
have
adopted
something
like
it
as
a
standalone
provision.
It
also
has
the
benefit
of
being
consistent
with
the
federal,
fair
housing
laws
with
regard
to
occupancy.
So
what
it
is,
is
it's
70
square
feet
for
a
bedroom
for
one
occupant,
an
additional
50
feet,
50
square
feet
for
additional
occupants
in
a
bedroom.
To
me,
that
seems
very,
very
reasonable.
It
seems
very
safe.
P
I
would
like
I
mean
I
support
doing
what
we
did,
but
I
support
also
going
further.
I
I
would
like
to
see
the
city
look
at
the
ipmc
as
a
whole.
I
think
it's
a
very
useful
code.
I
I
use
it
in
my
legal
practice
for
other
cities,
but
irr,
but
regardless
of
that,
I
think
that
we
should
look
at
those
occupancy
standards
because,
like
I
said,
they've
been
adopted
in
other
cities
who
also
don't
have
the
ipmc
and
are
consistent
with
federal,
fair
housing
laws.
P
So
I
I
don't
know
where
that
leaves
us,
but
I
I
would
like
to
have
some
minimum
standards
in
here
for
public
health
and
safety
that
go
a
little
bit
further
than
what
is
in
the
code,
and
I
I'll
listen
to
the
rest
of
my
colleagues
if
they
support
doing
that,
I'm
happy
to
bring
forward
an
amendment
to
that
if
needed,
if
it
can't
come
forward
relatively
quickly.
So
those
are
my
comments
for
now.
Thank
you.
A
Is
it
or
does
somebody
want
to
respond
to
that
or
chairman
cushion?
Did
you
have
anything
you
wanted
to
say
to
that.
T
Q
A
quick
I'll
provide
just
a
real,
quick
response
to
the
council
member
robertson,
so
the
ipmc,
the
international
property
maintenance
code,
is
a
code
that
we
will
be,
including
in
our
on
broader
assessment.
When
we
do
the
next
code
update.
I
know
it's
a
timing,
question
for
you
as
well,
but
that
is
something
that
also
provides
language
for
dangerous
buildings
and
related
to
unsafe
conditions,
as
well
as
house,
housing
or
house
required
housing
requirements
or
housing
code
requirements
as
you're
mentioning.
So
it
is
a
comprehensive
code.
Q
It
also
has
property
maintenance
requirements
that
may,
in
some
instances
go
a
little
further
than
the
council
may
want
to
adopt
directly.
But
that
being
said,
it
is
a
code
that
integrates
well
with
the
international
codes
that
have
been
adopted
by
the
city,
and
we
can
certainly
take
in
our
planning
to
take
a
look
at
that
code
and
bring
it
forward
with
the
next
update
that
occurs
with
the
international
codes.
E
I
I
agree
with
the
presentation.
I
appreciate
very
much
the
work
that's
been
done
on
this
and
I
think
they've
covered
what
we
we
asked
of
them.
I'm
not.
I
know
we
could
over
study
this
and
micromanage
it,
and
I
don't
think
that's
what
we
want
to
do.
I
think
councilmember
robertson's
suggestions
to
look
at
this
are
fine.
I
just
don't
want
us
to
get
bogged
down
in.
E
E
We
don't
find
some
ways
to
get
crosswise
with
the
intention
of
the
state's
regulation
of
this
and
end
up
taking
a
lot
of
time,
energy
and
money
to
do
something
that
is
kind
of
chasing
some
shadows
in
a
sense.
So
I
think
we
have
a
presentation
of
a
very
sound
program
and
the
things
that
council
member
robertson
mentioned
or
to
look
at,
but
again
I
think
we
need
to
act
quickly
and
get
this
put
in
place.
E
I
think
the
commission's
done
a
great
job
of
it
and
I'm
looking
forward
to
staff
bringing
this
forward
and
including
these
and,
of
course,
we'll
get
a
lot
of
public
comments.
E
So
but
overall,
I
think
we're
where
it's
a
very
responsible
response
to
what
the
state
is
requiring,
and
I
hope
we
can
just
move
this
along
and
get
it
put
in
place,
because
it
is
going
to
be
helpful
to
people
in
the
growth
of
this
city
to
be
able
to
have
more
people
having
home,
having
places
to
live
and
having
better
than
what
we've
had
before,
where
it's
more
kind
of
keeping
people
out.
E
Instead
of
having
people
come
in
and
we'll
manage
it,
a
lot
of
cities
have
done
this
for
decades
and
I
think
we're
getting
to
a
place
where
we're
really
in
being
very
inclusive
in
all
the
types
of
housing
we
have.
So
we
can
really
keep
get
people
out
off
the
street
and
in
housing.
So
if
they're
not
housed
they're
going
to
be
on
the
street,
so
thanks
thanks
really
much
for
the
work
on
this
and
looking
forward
to
our
looking
at
improving
it
and
putting
it
forward.
C
I
want
to
thank
the
commission
commission
chair
for
doing
good
work
on
this,
and
I
do
have
a
couple
questions.
One
is:
why
does
state
want
to
mandate
this?
Can
you
give
me
a
quick
half
a
minute.
D
I'm
happy
to
do
that,
so
the
the
washington
state
legislature
did
know
why
they
wanted
to
remove
the
occupancy
limits
in
passing
senate
bill
5235
and
in
essence,
they
wanted
to
remove
barriers
and
restrictions
that
limit
housing
opportunities
and
affordable
housing
opportunities.
C
Let
the
state
notice,
yes,
thank
you.
We
all
believe
in
that.
You
know
belgium
is
doing
as
much
as
a
lot
of
we're
doing
it
to
encourage
that,
and
my
question
is
when
they
did
that
they
consider
all
the
things
that
we
are
considering.
The
staff
is
considered
and
the
commission
has
considered-
and
I
understand
that
you
know
this
affects
very
limited.
C
You
know
application,
so
I
you
know
just
off
the
bat.
You
know,
there's
no
question
in
my
mind,
except
you
know
when
I
heard
council
member
robertson
bringing
out
a
specific,
you
know
ipmc
code
and
they
are
based
on
rational
reasons,
size,
and
we
also,
I
always
heard
the
staff
saying
we
have
a
lot
of
things,
I'm
comfortable
with
the
changes,
because
we
have
other
regulations
codes
and
we
have
enforcement
too.
So
I'm
very
happy
about
that.
C
But
I
just
want
to
be
sure,
though
our
code,
our
enforcement,
is
going
to
be
compatible
based
on
the
some
specific
criteria,
such
as
the
ipmc
code.
You
know
we
don't
want
to
make
it
difficult,
but
we
can
force
it,
but
if
the
proposition,
if
the,
if
the
arrangement
makes
it
challenging
difficult,
not
possible
to
enforce
it,
doesn't
make
sense
for
us
to
enforce
it
right,
because
you
know
when
they
break
the
law,
it's
already
broken.
C
It
doesn't
do
much
good,
especially
we
leave
it
to
other
people
to
do
that
who
maybe
whatever
base
reason
they
want
to
do
it.
We're
gonna
give
them
some
criteria
some
guideline,
so
so
two
question:
one
is
law
enforcement
rule
regulation.
Is
it
compatible
with
some
standards
that
people
are
not
going
to
break
laws
unless
they
intentionally
do
it,
then
we
can
go
after
them
and
two
you
know
what
kind
of
yeah
possible
you
know.
C
If
we
people
who
wants
to
allow
people
to
live
with
them,
we
can
do
it
anyway.
Right
I
mean
I
have
two
just
two
of
us
living
home.
I
can
invite
too
much
people
to
live
in
the
house.
They.
Never.
If
you
want
to
do
that,
you
know
60
000
people
in
bellevue
I
mean
we
was
we'll,
have
60
000
people
or
more
have
a
place
to
stay,
but
we're
not
doing
that.
C
Unfortunately,
you
know
so
we
have
to
depend
on
some
regulation
some
way
of
discoverment
trying
to
do
it
or
non-profits,
but
to
do
that,
we've
got
to
have
those
criteria
to
be
working
on.
So
I'm
just
asking
the
questions
when
we
do
enforcement
our
code,
are
they
compatible
based
on
some
rule
and
some
standards,
such
as
ipmc
standards?
So
I
kind
of
like
to
support
robert's
cousin
robertson's,
the
point
that
making
sure
and
that
we
have
some
standards.
Two,
the
standards
are
compatible
with
our
own.
C
D
Or
I
can
start-
and
maybe
mike
can
jump
in,
certainly
so
to
your
question,
about
compatibility
and
of
our
enforcement
mechanism
and
enforcing
our
regulations
that
are
in
place
now.
D
So
absolutely,
I
think
that,
right
now,
our
code
enforcement
officers
are
certainly
very
committed
and
and
able
to
look
at
complaints
and
review
them
and
investigate
them
and
be
able
to
address
and
respond
to
these
complaints,
whether
or
not
to
simply
screen
and
answer
questions
of
when
a
complaint
comes
in,
but
also
then
to
take
those
next
steps
in
investigation
and
then
requesting
corrections
when
there
is
a
violation
of
the
current
codes
and
our
compliance
officers
do
this
routinely.
D
We
do
address
a
lot
of
fancy
and
lodging
violations
as
well
as
unpermitted
construction.
That
happens
and
be
able
to
ensure
that
corrections
are
being
taken
and
we
can
abate
the
violations.
D
So
we
believe
there
is
a
compatibility
in
our
enforcement
mechanisms
and
tools
with
our
current
development
regulations.
Q
Q
Just
so
we
did
two
things,
one
is
inform.
Obviously
we
try
to
get
information
out
to
the
public,
so
they
understand
the
regulations
and,
as
tristan
noted,
the
we
still
have
a
number
of
regulations
in
place,
even
with
this
proposed
amendment
to
the
land
use
that
that
are
there
to
protect
the
neighborhood
so
dealing
with
transient
lodging
a
number
of
issues
related
to
you
know,
permitting
dangerous
building
abatement,
etc
when
those
sorts
of
complaints
are
received
by
our
staff.
Q
C
All
right,
let's
try
uncomfortable
because
you
have
twos,
you
can
force
them.
My
question
still,
though,
going
back
to
the
question
question:
when
the
state
removed
this
limit,
I
don't
know
whether
they
are
basing
it
on
certain
standards
in
reality
and
when
we
enforce
you
know,
we
want
to
also
know.
Are
we
enforcing
based
on
certain?
C
You
know
realistic
standards
like
ipmc,
you
know,
because
if
we
have
unrealistic
standards,
you
know
we're
going
to
be
sure
that
we're
going
to
be
enforcing
the
laws
unnecessarily
right
and
we're
going
to
do
it
that
it
is
within
certain
realistic
standards
that
if
they
break
it,
then
we
can't
force
it,
but
we
don't
want
them
to
break
it
because
you
know
that's
not
what
we
want
to
do
right.
So
there
has
to
be
some
standard.
Some
practice.
Some
experience
some
best
case
and
that's
why
I'm
referring
to?
Are
we
setting
those
things
up?
C
You
know
with
some
criteria
or
are
we
just
saying
hey
self-centered,
you
know,
so
I
think.
Ultimately,
the
question:
is
you
don't
answer
that?
I
think
it's
really
related
to
councilman
robinson's
question.
You
know
what
it
is
realistic
and
how
do
we
set
it
up
and
number
one?
The
state's
removal
is
realistic.
C
A
You
feel
like
you've
answered
this
already
or
do
you
have
more
to
say.
Q
I'm
not
quite
sure
we
have
I.
I
would
just
emphasize
again
that,
yes,
we
do
have
standards
and
we
do
enforce
those.
I
think
the
standard
that
council
member
robertson
is
referring
to
is
a
more
let's
call
it
a
more
precise
standard
for
enforcing
occupancy
limits
when
it
could
be
considered
as
unsafe
or
unsanitary.
F
Thank
you.
Well,
so
I
appreciate
this
work,
chair,
malakuchen
and
the
planning
commission
and
staff.
You
know
I'm
working
so
quickly
to
get
the
code
updated.
I
do
have
well.
I
guess
one
comment
and
then
one
in
a
related
question.
So
my
comment
is
that
I
do
think
it's
important
and
I'm
glad
to
know
that
we
do
have
health
and
building
code
requirements
in
place
so
that
our
community
can
be
assured
that
if
we
do
have
unsafe
or
unsanitary
conditions
that
there
is
code
and
code
enforcement
related
to
that.
F
My
question,
though,
is
related
to
I.
I
suppose
a
bit
related
to
the
comments
we've
been
talking
about
with
occupancy,
and
it
is
this
when
I
look
at
the
2020.140
on
boarding
houses
and
bed
and
breakfast,
and
I
read
about
the
limits
on
transient-
lodging
no
more
than
two
rooms
rented
to
two
adults
plus
children.
F
So
I'm
trying
to
understand
a
scenario
where
my
husband
and
I
are,
if
we're
from
out
of
town
we're
gonna
come
visit.
Bellevue
transient
lodging
I'm
bringing
my
adult
daughter,
her
partner
and
my
mother,
that
if
there's
a
room,
if
there's
a
house
that
actually
has
four
bedrooms,
they
couldn't
rent
three
rooms
to
us
because
they
would
violate
this
code.
Is
that
correct.
D
That's
correct
council
members
on
so
the
there
is
a
limitation
on
the
number
of
rooms,
as
well
as
the
number
of
renters
that
may
occupy
those
rooms,
and
that
was
put
in
place
as
part
of
that
ordinance
that
caleb
spoke
of
earlier
and
it
really
tried
to
address
canada,
the
occupancy
for
transient
lodging
situations.
So
if,
in
your
example
of
kind
of
three
adults
for
instance,
then
an
airbnb
in
bellevue
would
not
be
suitable
for
that
situation.
F
Okay,
so
I
then,
I
guess
my
question
is:
how
did
we
come
up
with
this
as
a
criteria,
because
I'm
trying
to
imagine
the
fact
that
we
would
not
be
considered
undesirables
to
be
able
to
rent
and
if
there,
if
this,
if
the
building
actually
had
the
rooms
for
us,
why?
We
would
have
this
code
with
a
limitation?
F
That
may
not
be
reflective
of
the
fact
that
we're
an
international
city
and
have
many
immigrants
that
may
come
from
a
living
situation
where
the
square
footage
of
occupancy
may
not
be
the
same,
and
so
I
just
like
to
understand
about
how
we
came
up
with
these
numbers
of
the
maximum
of
two
rooms
and
and
two
adults.
Each.
A
D
So
council
members
on,
maybe
I
should
clarify
so
if
you
had
three
adults
in
your
family
and
a
couple
of
minor
children,
for
instance,
an
airbnb
in
bellevue
has
a
maximum
of
two
rooms
with
two
adults
in
each
room,
so
you
could
potentially
take
both
rooms
and
a
home
for
your
family
so
to
stay
in
the
other
thing
to
note
too
bed
and
breakfast
situat
regulations
that
you
are
speaking
about
is
when
they
happen
in
owner-occupied
single-family
homes,
so
it
is
specific
to
single-family
homes
and
single-family
land-use
districts
and
the
intent
among
other
things.
D
In
that
ordinance,
the
single
family
rental
ordinance
is
really
trying
to
protect
single-family,
neighborhoods
and
neighborhood
characters.
So
there
is
that
limitation
on
the
amount
or
the
kind
of
the
amount
of
rooms
and
the
impacts
that
transient
use
of
of
homes
may
have
on
on
neighborhoods
and
single-family
neighborhoods.
G
Thank
you
mayor
and
appreciate
the
the
the
work
by
the
planning
commission
staff
on
this,
and
I
had
a
quick
question.
First
off
is,
if
we
did
at
this
time,
wanted
to
take
a
look
at
those
imp
standards.
Can
we
extend
the
ioc
for
an
additional
six
month
period?
While
we
look
at
that,
or
do
we
really
need
to
take
action
on
this
to
stay
compliant.
D
So
we
are
looking
for
a
direction
to
finalize
the
luca
for
adoption
at
a
future
meeting
in
order
to
meet
that
january,
12th
expiration
date.
So
as
long
as
we
can
do
that
by
that
date,
then
there's
no
need
to
extend
the
ioc.
However,
if
council
would
like
to
get
further
data
or
analysis
done,
it's
likely
that
that
ioc
would
have
to
be
extended
in
order
to
accommodate
the
additional
process.
D
No,
not
at
all
so
as
long
as
the
city
extends
the
ioc.
G
Great
and
then
I
had
a
question
so
we're
talking
about
that
compatibility
of
enforcing
the
regulations
and
and
code
compliance,
etc.
This
was
all
there
at
the
time.
Wasn't
it
back
in
2015
correct
when
we
had
some
some
residents
that
brought
forward
a
change
to
to
to
the
luca
those
same
code
enforcement
and
regulations.
G
Those
are
still
those
are
all
in
place
at
that
time.
Correct
nothing
has
changed
between
now
and
then
my
point,
my
point
is,
I
guess,
and
maybe
my
colleagues
who
were
on
the
council
at
that
time-
those
residents
felt
it
necessary
to
bring
forward
a
change
to
luke
in
order
to
address
a
problem.
They
didn't
feel
that
the
that
the
enforcement
of
those
regulations
were
enough
at
that
time.
So
I'm
just
trying
to
understand
why.
G
At
this
point
we
feel
comfortable
that
we're
going
to
be
able
to
regulate
the
health
and
safety
of
these
of
these
dwellings
by
allowing
this
to
be
enforced.
D
So
thank
you
for
that
question,
deputy
mayor
moon
house
and
mike
please
add,
if
I
missed
anything
here
so
ordinance,
62
23
was
adopted
in
2015..
There
were
a
couple
of
iocs,
I
believe,
prior
to
the
adoption
of
the
final
luca
ordnance
and
as
caleb
noted
in
the
presentation,
6223
actually
encompassed
and
contained
a
lot
more
than
the
occupancy
limits.
So
it
contained
the
looming
house
provisions,
it
contained
bed
and
breakfast
and
boarding
house
provisions
as
well
as
just
kind
of
other
related
provisions.
D
So,
but
you
were
right,
I
think
most
of
the
great
health
and
safety
regulations
such
as
the
building
code
and
abatement
of
dangerous
building,
uniform
housing
code,
for
instance,
were
actually
in
place
at
that
time.
In
addition
to,
and
I
think
the
the
genesis
of
ordnance
60
23
was
really
to
address
the
rooming
house
violations
or
kind
of
conditions
that
were
in
place,
these
are
the
single
room,
rentals
that
were
occurring
near
bellevue
college
in
the
lake
hills,
neighborhood
and
just
to
know
we're
not.
D
This
luca
would
not
change
any
of
those
the
rooming
house
provisions.
Those
would
still
be
in
place
so
rooming
houses
are
not
allowed
in
single-family
districts.
A
So
I
I
interpret
this
as
a
fine
tuning
of
that
ordinance.
We
did
in
2015,
which
was
created
to
kind
of
protect
abuse
of
single-family
neighborhoods.
It
certainly
was
never
intended
to
not
allow
affordable
housing
in
single-family
neighborhoods,
and
so
this
is
to
me
a
good
fine
tuning
of
it.
I'm
in
support
of
it.
I
did
have
a
question:
councilmember
robertson
brought
up
the
inp
standards
and
how
many
individuals
can
be
in
a
certain
amount
of
space.
Isn't
that
a
fire
code
thing
as
well?
Q
So,
in
res
for
residential
uses,
single
family
residential
uses,
the
fire
code
and
the
building
code
do
not
set
a
specific
maximum
occupant
load
for
square
footage.
It
really
is
at
the
discretion
of
the
building
official
in
the
fire
marshal
in
those
circumstances,
to
determine
if
we
have
an
unsafe
condition
depending
upon
how
the
the
building
is
being
used,
the
condition
of
the
building
etc.
Q
The
the
I,
the
international
property
maintenance
code
does
set
as
council
member
robertson
noted
more
specific
criteria
for
that
describe,
what's
required
for
certain
occupant
loads
in
square
footage
of
building
area,
which
is
fairly
consistent
with
larger
commercial
buildings.
There's
you
know,
as
you
you
know,
occupies,
are
established
by
by
building
area,
but
residential,
currently
in
the
international
building
code
and
fire
car
treated
differently.
Q
A
So,
what's
the
difference
between
having
it
in
the
or
in
the
in
the
land
use
code,
amendment
versus
being
something
that
the
fire
marshal
would
check
on?
If
somebody
were
to
call
it
in.
Q
So
it's
a
lo
because
it
would
be
considered
a
building
and
fire
safety
requirement.
It
more
consistently
fits
in
with
those
codes,
but
if
there
are
provisions
in
the
city's
land
use
code
related
to
occupancy
and
and
safety,
certainly
that
gives
us
enforcement
capacity
as
well.
I
think
from
the
enforcement
provisions
that
are
in
the
building
in
fire
code
provide
more
specific
criteria
on
how
that
enforcement
applies
and
who
has
the
authority
as
the
building
official
and
the
fire
marshal?
Q
Who
also
have
the
credentials
to
make
those
sorts
of
interpretations,
so
it
gets
a
little
bit
tricky
to
put
that
sort
of
language
in
a
land
use
code.
But
again
it
is
a
city
code
that
is
enforceable,
so
we
would
find
the
proper
procedures
to
implement
it.
If
the
council
chose
to
do
it.
A
Okay,
because
really,
I
think
what
was
the
whole
reason
that
they
were
we
were
going
for.
The
ordinance
is
because
it
was
so
hard
to
enforce
what
we
had
written
in
the
code
at
the
time,
and
so
that's
interesting.
A
U
Thank
you
mayor.
I
guess
I
guess
I'm
just
curious
about
what
complaints
or
how
many
complaints
that
have
we
received
related
to
this,
maybe
within
the
past
year
that
turned
out
to
be,
I
don't
know
valid
complaints,
so
I
guess
I'm
trying
to
get
a
sense
of.
Is
there
a
need
to
find
fine
tune?
It
further
go
beyond
what
the
state
ledge
requirements
are,
and
then
second,
I
guess
I
would
just
say
I
guess
I
just.
U
How
far
do
we
go
in
determining
whether
someone's
space
is
safe?
I
mean:
where
do
we
draw
that
line,
because
if
it's
already
accounted
for
in
the
building
code-
and
we
already
have
a
way
to
enforce
it,
that
way
I
mean,
do
we
need
to
put
these
extra
policies
in
place?
Rules
in
place.
Q
So
I
I
don't
the
the
first
question
council
member
marksdale.
I
have
to
refer
to
trisna
or
caleb
on
the
number
of
complaints.
I
don't
have
that
number
off
the
top
of
my
head.
You
might
have
to
follow
up
on
that.
We
do
receive
complaints.
I
don't
believe
it's
a
large
number
treasonous
caleb.
Do
you
have
any
specifics
on
that.
D
I
don't
have
the
exact
number
either,
but
working
as
I
work
pretty
closely
with
our
code
compliance
folks,
we
do
get
complaints
about
improper
use
of
single
family
homes.
Let's
put
it
that
way.
D
Most
of
the
time
it's
related
to
like
there's
they're,
seeing
too
many
cars
parked
on
the
street
or
they're,
seeing
that
sometimes
it's
related
to
transient
lodging
they're,
seeing
an
ad,
for
instance,
in
an
airbnb
and
those
complaints,
we
do
follow
up
with
them
on
all
of
the
complaints,
but
we
do
find
a
lot
of
it
has
to
do
more
with
with
transient
lodging,
as
opposed
to
kind
of
the
number
of
occupants
say.
D
I
just
wanted
to
also
mention
that
the
land
use
code
does
already
allow
for
unlimited
number
of
related
adults,
so
this
would
be
removing
the
unrelated
part
of
the
restriction
there.
So
we
have,
we
do
kind
of
we'll
continue
to
monitor
how
what
happens.
I
guess
with
with
this
ordinance
if
it
goes
through.
E
Yes,
I
did
I,
I
think
this
has
been
fascinating.
I
don't
know
how
anybody
listening
to
this
could
really
understand
whether
we
know
what
we're
talking
about
or
what
is
before
us
or
anything
else.
I
I'm
a
little
we're
going
down
this
rabbit
hole
again
on
these
things.
The
lucas
said
we
have.
We
have
to
amend
definitions
of
family,
single
house
and
single
housekeeping
unit.
That
seems
pretty
straightforward
and
we
can
talk
about
the
theoretical
without
knowing
what
this
language
is
or
what
it,
what
it
really
means.
E
I'm
just
concerned
that
this
is
something
the
state
says
we
have
to
do
and
it
seems
pretty
straightforward.
It
doesn't
say
we
have
to
change
other
things.
I
would
like
to
see
a
zero
in
on
what
needs
to
be
changed
by
state
law
and
we're
not
saying
we
have
to
change
other
things,
but
yet
we're
putting
those
in
there
and
we're
going
to
end
up
spending
a
lot
of
time
on
that,
and
we
want
to
push
this
out
instead
of
getting
it
put
in
place
and
then
we've
got
wilberton
to
talk
about.
E
C
Sorry
this
happened
in
2015
at
the
spirit
with
the
neighborhood
near
bellew
college
because
of
the
you
know,
roaming
house
problems,
and
so
it
became
a
big
thing.
I
remember
the
whole
housing
thing
became
a
big
topic
for
the
city,
so
I'm
just
curious
whether
we
talk
to
the
spirit
folks,
you
know
the
reason
I
asked
this
is
such
a
challenging,
difficult
question,
especially
right
now
we
talk
about
housing.
C
In
fact,
when
you
mention
the
world,
you
know
everybody
said:
what's
housing
right,
and
so
it's
not
easy
to
understand
and
people
who
live
there.
They
think
their
lives
are
affected
by
it.
You
know
they
want
to
understand
better.
Do
we
contact
spiritual
folks
and
what,
if
you
know
they
have
responded?
Or
what
do
you
think
are
the
challenging
educating
some
folks
that
they
understand
how
they
are
impacted
or
not
impacted?
R
Yes,
we
did
not
reach
out
to
any
specific
neighborhood
groups
on
this,
but,
as
we
noted
in
the
presentation,
we
did
do
our
standard
noticing
procedures,
which
include
notify
application
in
our
weekly
permit
bulletin.
It
gets
published
in
the
seattle
times
as
well
as
notices
for
all
of
the
the
courtesy
hearings
and
the
public
hearings
that
have
been
held
for
this
luca.
R
All
of
that
being
said,
as
I
noted,
staff
has
only
received
one
comment
expressing
some
of
the
concerns
we've
that
have
been
raised
tonight
to
the
point
about
rooming
houses,
specifically
I'll
just
say,
the
the
language
that
we're
proposing
is
very
much
targeted
just
to
go
after
the
occupancy
limits.
R
All
of
the
other
rooming
health
provisions
are
remaining
in
place
and
that
should
address
a
lot
of
the
issues
that
were
raised
back
in
2015
about
you
know:
people
making
dormitories
out
of
single-family
homes
so
to
speak,
so
so
yeah,
that's.
That
would
be
my
result.
A
Thank
you,
okay,
councilmembers,
on
followed
by
councilmember
robertson,.
F
F
Oh
sorry,
the
planning
commission,
yes,
chairman
kuchin,
sorry,
let
me
be
clear
about
that
and
I
would
say
the
reason.
Why
is
because
what
I
heard
is
we
already
have
the
health
and
building
code
provisions
in
place.
We
have
compliance
and
enforcement
provisions
in
place,
and
this
is
where
I
want
to
make
sure
that,
just
because
we
have
a
land
use
code,
amendment
in
front
of
us
that
doesn't
mean
that
every
decisions
we
make
that
we're
going
to
use
the
land
use
code
as
though
every
single
nail
is
a
hammer.
F
P
I've
had
my
hand
up
for
quite
some
time,
so
a
question
for
staff.
I
understand
we
have
general
health
and
safety
codes
in
the
building
code,
but
is
there
if
there's
say,
there's
and
mind
you
the
things?
Four
types
of
housing
in
front
of
us
are
all
ones
other
than
adus
that
are
licensed
they're
businesses.
P
Q
P
Right,
okay,
so
that
that's
my
understanding
as
well,
which
is
why
I
raised
this
because
there
isn't
a
occupancy
limitation
in
residential
and
the
reason
that
we
originally
had
a
definition
for
family
is
that
it
was
a
way
to
logically
manage
occupancy.
P
P
But
I
want
the
residents
of
those
folks
as
well
as
the
neighbors,
to
be
safe
and
have
it
be
livable,
so
whether
we
adopted
the
a
building
code
at
a
later
date
or
the
international
property
maintenance
code
at
the
later
date,
we're
not
adopting
it
now
we're
getting
rid
of
one
of
the
protections
of
occupancy,
which
is
the
definition
of
family
and
there's
nothing
in
place
to
add
as
a
stopgap
measure.
So
that's
why
I'm
concerned
I
want
people
to
be
safe.
P
I
want
bellevue
to
be
livable
and
I
you
know
it
needs
to
it.
If
it's
a
if
it's
a
house
that
is
in
good
condition,
there
is
no
number
that
of
limitation
that
you
could
put
in
a
house
based
on
the
changes.
So
I
understand
that
my
colleagues
don't
seem
to
want
to
get
into
this,
or
at
least
some
of
you,
but
I
really
care
about
making
sure
that
people
are
not
over
packing
buildings
and
creating
a
fire
code,
hazard
and
or
severe
impacts
on
the
surrounding
neighbors.
P
A
Staff,
if
we
were
to
adopt
it
as
proposed
tonight
and
later
on,
decide
to
put
a
more
the
international
code
application
onto
that
is
that
would
that
be
possible
later
on,
or
would
that
take
a
major
process.
Q
So
to
review
and
adopt
all
or
a
part
of
the
international
property
maintenance
code
would
be.
You
know
a
significant
piece
of
work.
We
would
have
to
add
it
into
the
work
plan
and
figure
out
where
it
would
fit.
I
did
mention
earlier
that
it
is
teed
up
to
be
part
of
the
more
comprehensive
code
update
that
happens
with
the
international
codes
and
that
would
that
work
will
begin
next
year,
probably
second
quarter
of
next
year
and
carry
into
the
following
year.
A
Okay,
any
more
comments
or
questions
or
yes,
councilmember
barksdale.
U
Q
So
the
building
official
or
fire
marshal
would
need
to
determine
that
we
have
an
unsafe
condition.
So
it'd
be
more
discretionary
and
less
of
a
number
that
they're
looking
at
for
occupants
based
on
square
footage,
but
they
do
have
the
authority
to
intervene
when
they
determine.
We
have
an
unsafe
condition.
U
Q
Right
so
as
you've
heard
as
far
as
the
limits
on
boarding
houses
and
number
of
rooms-
and
you
know
an
airbnb
etc,
those
are
regulations
that
remain
in
place
are
not
impacted
by
this.
Yes,
except
for
single-family
homes
in
the
and
the
definition
of
family
and
the
limits
put
on
by
that
definition
are
what
are
being
lifted
here.
So
it
does
have
an
impact,
but
many
of
the
tools
remain
in
place
that
were
put
in
place
in
2015.
G
A
All
those
in
favor
say
aye
aye,
all
those
opposed,
no
okay.
It
passes
five
to
two
all
right.
Let's
take
a
five
minute
break,
we'll
be
back
at
7
35.
O
Hey

Overview
of
the
agenda
touch
real
quickly
again
on
the
mid
by
calendar
that
mr
miyaki
just
mentioned.
Q
Q
So
the
director
of
finance
and
asset
management
tony
call
last
week
locked
the
council
through
the
mid
by
calendar.
This
is
just
another
quick
overview,
so
this
evening
we
are
providing
review
of
the
development
services
fee,
update
and
then
next
week
would
be
the
mid
by
adjustments
in
the
forecast.
Q
And
then
you
can
see
the
rest
of
the
the
schedule
concluding
in
late
november
or
early
december
with
adoption
next
slide.
Please
and
the
actions
on
adoption
would
be
the
list
of
ordinances
that
are
provided
here
by
the
development
fee,
ordinance
the
exchange
development
services
fee,
ordinance,
the
property
tax
bank
capacity
resolution,
the
property
tax
levy,
ordinance
and
then
the
kind
of
umbrella
mid
by
budget
ordinance
and
any
other
actions
that
may
be
directed
by
the
council
as
we
go
through
the
mid
by
budget
process.
Next
slide,
please!
Q
So
this
evening
very
quickly,
as
I
mentioned
we
gave
you
gave
the
council
an
update
on
development
activity
in
the
city
which
has
been
robust,
is
an
understatement
and
continues
to
be
moving
along
at
a
very
brisk
pace.
Q
We
are
seeing
a
lot
of
mixed
use
projects,
significant
amount
of
investment
in
office,
much
of
that
driven
by
the
interest
in
amazon,
locating
a
significant
number
of
their
employees
in
bellevue,
and
we
are
seeing
the
growth
happening
in
those
areas
that
are
really
planned
to
accept
that
growth.
The
next
slide,
please
clearly
working
hard
to
respond
and
keep
pace.
Q
We
have
bumped
our
staffing
levels
up
continue
to
stay
focused
on
our
customer
service,
even
as
we
are
transitioned
quickly
into
the
pandemic,
as
the
rest
of
the
community
was
impacted,
so
were
we
and
had
to
shift
very
much
to
an
online
service
delivery
for
our
permitting
services,
and,
as
you
know,
our
inspectors
are
on
the
ground
every
day
out
on
these
job
sites,
ensuring
that
they
are
meeting
the
building
code
requirements
and
the
approved
plans
and
continuing
to
pay
close
attention
to
all
of
the
safeguards
that
are
required
on
responding
to
the
coven
19
impacts
next
slide,
please.
Q
So
the
book
that
we
want
to
talk
about
this
evening
is
really
the
proposed
fee.
Adjustments.
These
fee
adjustments
maintain
alignment
with
the
financial
policies
that
have
been
established
for
development
services.
They
we
adjust
our
hourly
rates
that
are
charged
for
a
number
of
the
permit,
so
it's
charge
by
hour.
We
have
also
fees
that
are
based
on
the
value
of
the
project.
Q
Those
are
value-based
permit
fees
which
are
primarily
our
building
permits,
and
then
we
have
flat
rates.
So
these
are
the
high
volume
permits
that
we
charge
a
flat
rate
for
to
try
to
keep
the
the
fees
structure
very
as
simple
as
we
as
we
can,
and
we
update
those
based
on
the
average
time
spent
and
any
fee
adjustment
based
on
our
cost
changes
next
slide,
please.
Q
Next
slide,
please
so
the
cost
recovery
objectives
and
I'll
walk
through
these
briefly,
but
I
think
they're
informative
and
are
a
foundation
to
the
way
we
charge
for
our
services
so
starting
on
the
left,
the
public
information
and
policy
development
work
is
100
supported
through
the
general
fund,
and
that
is
obviously
work
that
we
do
for
the
council
in
policy
work
and
then
public
information
to
the
to
the
general
public
to
inform
them
of
the
permitting
processes
and
regulations
of
the
city.
Q
Next
to
that
is
the
pre-submittal
support
so
again
getting
people
close
to
the
door
not
in
yet,
but
helping
them
understand.
The
process
particularly,
are
some
of
our
major
developers
and
those
are
they're.
Coming
from
out
of
town,
we
spend
a
significant
amount
of
time
up
front,
trying
to
make
sure
there's
clarity
about
the
process
that
they're
that
they'll
need
to
go
through
for
the
development
proposal.
The
first
major
phase
in
the
review
process
is
our
land
use
and
discretionary
review
and
there's
a
50
cost
recovery.
Q
So
half
of
that
is
supported
through
the
general
fund
and
half
of
that
is
paid
for
by
the
applicant.
That
is
our
discretionary
orlando's
decisions.
When
we
move
into
the
more
detailed
review,
engineering,
review
and
or
inspection
services,
those
are
100
percent
supported
by
fees.
So
the
the
applicant
or
contractor
developer
pays
100
of
the
cost
of
us
of
our
support
for
that
particular
part
of
the
permitting
and
inspection
services
process.
And
then
we
have
business
support
finance
our
permit
processing
our
technology.
Folks.
That
again,
is
also
supported
100
through
our
fee
structure.
Q
V
They
are
routine
adjustments
to
our
hourly
rates,
inflationary
adjustments
to
our
valuation,
based
fees
and
adjustments
to
our
one-time
flat
fees.
This
chart
explains
the
building
permits
and
these
permits
use
the
value
of
the
project
to
set
the
fees
routine.
Adjustments
to
the
tables
that
set
the
fees
are
by
cpiw
and
by
applying
a
regional
modifier
for
2022,
we
propose
adjusting
the
tables
by
cpiw
6.3
percent
and
the
washington
state
modifier
of
1.14.
V
The
hourly
rates
are
proposed
to
increase
by
up
to
four
percent,
to
recover
the
increase
in
the
costs
for
services.
This
chart
shows
rates
that
are
proposed
for
land
use,
transportation,
fire
and
fire
utilities
review
and
inspection
and
factors
that
impact
the
rates
include
salary
and
benefit
costs.
Inflationary
m,
o
and
cost
changes
for
internal
overhead,
which
include
recruitment
and
training
for
new
and
additional
staff
in
2018
council,
approved
a
2
surcharge
to
rates
as
a
result
of
the
cost
of
service
study,
with
a
consultant
to
evaluate
our
reserve
levels.
V
The
2
surcharge
was
for
the
purpose
of
increasing
our
core
staffing
reserves
and
we
have
since
achieved
the
recommended
reserves,
and
this
surcharge
is
no
longer
needed,
so
we
have
eliminated
the
two
percent
surcharge
and
the
reduction
has
offset
some
of
the
increases
in
costs.
So
you
see
no
change
to
some
hourly
rates.
V
For
some
permits
we
charge
a
flat
fee
based
on
the
average
hours
of
reviewing
and
inspection
time,
and
the
flat
fee
can
vary
by
the
change
in
the
hourly
rate
and
or
the
average
time.
Because
of
this,
some
flat
fees
increase
and
some
decrease
shown
are
two
examples
for
land
use
review
on
a
commercial
mechanical
permit.
There
is
no
increase
and
for
the
right-of-way
review
on
a
street
use
permit
the
increase
is
seventy
one
dollars
a
couple
of
valuation-based.
V
To
ensure
that
we
are
regionally
competitive
we've
compared
our
fees
to
our
neighbor
jurisdictions.
This
chart
compares
the
current
valuation
based
fees
for
a
hundred
thousand
dollar
tenant
improvement
and
bill
views
proposed
visa.
The
light
blue
bar
for
2022
and
just
below
it
is
bellevue's
current
fee.
V
The
next
chart
is
for
a
500
square
foot
single
family
edition
again.
The
light
blue
bar
is
the
proposed
2022
fee
and
just
below
it
is
bellevue's
current
fee
and
again
bellevue's
fees
fall
in
the
mid-range
between
king
county
and
seattle
and
redmond
kirkland
issaquah
charged
lower
rates,
seattle,
king
county
and
bellevue
are
jurisdictions
with
full
cost
recovery
objectives
for
permit
fees,
while
redmond,
kirkland
and
issaquah
permit
costs
are
part
of
their
general
fund.
V
Q
Thank
you
just
wanted
to
say
just
a
few
words
about
the
issaquah
school
district
and
renton
school
district
impact
fee
update
and
as
city
manager,
matt
miyaki
mentioned.
We
have
representatives
from
both
the
issaquah
and
renton
school
district,
thomas
mullins,
the
director
of
capital
projects
with
the
issaquah
school
district
is
available
this
evening.
Should
council
have
any
questions
and
tracy
brewer
rogstad.
The
senior
facilities
program
director
from
the
renton
school
district
is
also
joining
us
this
evening,
so
issaquah
and
renton
school
districts
charge
an
impact
fee
to
support
their
capital
programs.
Q
These
are
pass-through
fees,
so
we
collect
the
fee
for
on
behalf
of
the
school
district
for
residential
development,
so
both
single
family
and
residential
and
those
fees
are
transferred
directly
from
the
city
to
the
school
district.
Where
the
development
is
occurring,
we
again
transfer
those
those
fees
directly.
There
is
not
a
impact
to
the
city
operation
with
respect
to
managing
that.
It's
not
a
significant
amount
of
additional
administrative
work
on
our
part.
Next
slide,
please.
Q
Q
Their
multi-family
impact
fee
is
actually
dropping
3
690
to
8
353.,
the
renton
school
district
fee
adjustment
impact
fee.
Adjustment
for
single
family
is
decreasing
by
just
over
5000
to
2659
and
their
multi-family
impact,
seeing
a
modest
decrease
of
252
dollars
and
their
fee
for
each
multi-family
unit.
Q
At
four
thousand,
seven
hundred
and
thirty
seven
dollars
next
slide,
please
so
that
again,
the
direction
that
we
are
seeking
from
the
council
this
evening
is
directing
staff
to
bring
forward
at
a
future
date
generally
happening
with
the
adoption
of
the
mid
by
budget
ordinances.
The
2022
development
services
fee
proposed
fee
adjustments,
as
well
as
the
2022
school
impact
fee,
update
or
schedule
mayor
that
completes
our
presentation
for
this
evening.
A
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
I'm
going
to
call
in
this
order.
Councilmember
lee,
followed
by
zahn
deputy
mayor
stokes,
robertson,
barksdale
and
myself
councilmember
lee.
C
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
I
want
to
compliment
the
developmental
staff
for
always
doing
a
great
job.
You
know
I
hear
a
lot
of
good
things
about
them
and
even
especially
during
the
pandemic
period,
you
know
everywhere
things
are
slowing
down,
the
value
is
going
up
and
they're
still
responding.
C
Amazingly,
you
know
during
this
very
difficult
time,
difficult
challenge.
So
I
think
that
the
radiative
is
established
are
very
reasonable
and
they're
very
supported,
and
so
I
would
definitely
go
along
with
it
and
because
they
do
provide
service
that
you
know
to
me.
It's
you
know
the
best.
So,
with
the
school
impact
fee,
as
mike
brandon
indicated
it's
a
pass
through,
you
know
we
basically
just
have
no
authority
really
do
much
with
it.
C
C
You
know
utilized
and
so
on,
and
so
I
just
wanna
ask
one
question:
have
we
heard
anything
from
the
residents
in
those
two
areas
that
may
have
given
us
input?
I
haven't
received
anything
so
I
don't
know
what
the
other
council
member
have
or
not,
but
I
want
to
know
if
the
staff
has-
and
this
is
our
responsibility-
maybe
to
pass
on
this
information
to
the
school
district.
That's
one
question
second
question:
I
just
noticed
that
issaquah
has
such
a
high
amount
for
single-family
homes,
and
I
don't
quite
understand.
C
Q
So,
thank
you.
Councilmember
leah
I'll,
respond
to
the
first
question.
I'll
have
to
refer
the
second
question
regarding
the
the
level
of
the
fee
to
mr
mullins
from
the
issaquah
school
district.
So
we
have
not
received
any
comments
directly
regarding
the
impact
fee
and
I
think
even
when
we
collect
it,
I
think
it's
clear
that
the
fee
is
being
passed
through
to
the
issaquah
school
district
and
the
fee
is
established
by
the
is
across
school
district
board.
Q
So
we
have
not
that
I'm
aware
I've
heard
of
anything
positive
or
negative
about
about
the
impact
fee
from
our
staff.
Mr
mullins,
as
far
as
the
fee
how
the
fee
is
established,
maybe
you
could
provide
some
additional
information.
Thank
you.
W
Good
evening,
everyone,
tom
mullins
director
of
capital
projects
here
at
the
izakawa
school
district,
the
school
impact
fee
calculations,
are
done
by
various
groups,
parts
and
pieces
and
various
groups
and
art
in
the
district,
and
they
come
to
us
to
be
brought
together
into
a
packet
and
presented.
We
found
an
increase.
We
in
the
last
two
years,
we've
three
years,
we've
been
under
construction
with
a
couple
schools.
W
We've
noticed
a
dramatic
increase
in
construction
costs
which
helped
drive
that
up,
as
have
we
seen
a
definite
increase
in
the
student
factor
for
the
for
the
single
family
and
the
student.
The
student
factor
is
the
number
of
kids
students
that
come
out
of
every
single
family
home,
and
so
those
two
factors
are
what
have
caused
the
increase
this
year
and
the
construction
costs.
As
I
I
think
I
looked,
we
increased
it
by
about
11
somewhere
around
in
there.
W
So
it's
it's
fairly
dramatic,
as
is
the
student
factor
rate
and
those
are
what
are
driving,
that
increase
in
the
single
family
rate.
F
On
yes,
thank
you.
You
know.
I
also
want
to
express
my
appreciation,
mike
for
the
way
that
you
run
development
services,
we're
very
intentional
and
thoughtful
about
how
the
fees
are
calculated,
doing
the
study
and
making
sure
that
we're
comparing
ourselves
against
neighboring
municipalities,
so
that
we
are
not
way
above
where
others
are.
So.
F
So
I
wouldn't
be
looking
at
at
creating
a
fee
for
that,
but
it
may
be
that,
as
we
look
at
the
early
wins
on
the
esi,
that
we
look
at
that
budget
to
see,
if
there's
in
a
sufficient
budget
to
be
able
to
support
mike
shop
in
working
with
the
folks
coming
in
for
permits,
especially
in
that
early
period
of
public
information
and
pre-submittal
support
to
figure
out
how
we
can
have
a
win-win
both
from
a
development
services.
Standpoint
as
well
as
our
environmental
stewardship.
F
G
Thank
you,
mayor,
yeah,
I'll,
follow
my
colleagues
a
great
great
presentation,
thanks
mike,
I
think.
Certainly
this
is
a
modest
increase
and
reasonable
compared
to
other
municipalities
throughout
throughout
the
region.
I
really
just
had
one
question
and
actually
it's
a
great
follow-up
question
from
councilmember
is
on
there.
How?
Because,
because
you
rightly
point
out
seven
years
of
peak
development,
how
much
are
we
bringing
in
on
a
yearly
basis
on
average
and
where
and
and
where
is
that
money
going?
G
I'm
sure
there's
a
lot
of
folks
who
are
watching
tonight
and
always
see
the
cranes
everywhere
throughout
the
city
and
all
the
developments
going
on.
But
can
you
touch
on
that
just
just
a
little
bit
for
the
for
the
public
to
hear.
Q
So
sure,
absolutely
so,
and
terry
I'll
have
to
ask
you
for
the
numbers
here
just
a
minute,
so
we
obviously
collect
fees
for
our
permit
services
and,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
we
have
cost
recovery
objectives
that
the
council
has
established
that
we
set
our
rates.
So
there's
a
there
is
significant
money
to
pay
for
a
significant
cost
of
managing
all
of
this
development.
O
Q
There's
also
money
that
comes
in
on
the
other
in
the
other
ledger.
That's
our
sales
tax
side,
obviously,
and
you'll
hear
a
bit
more
about
that.
I
believe
in
a
forecast-
that's
upcoming
here
shortly,
but
as
far
as
our
our
our
operating
budget
is
concerned,
terry,
if
you
will
remind
me
again
of
what
our
annual
operating
budget
is
in
development
services
and
then,
if
you
could
share
what
are
what
was
on
the
revenue
side
on
fees
say
last
year,
for
example,
for
comparison.
V
Our
operating
budget
is
about
29
million
dollars,
that
is,
for
all
of
development
services
costs
across
the
city,
and
then
our
revenue
that
came
in
last
year,
for
that
was
about
30
for
33
million
dollars,
and
much
of
that
revenue
came
from
our
building
fees
that
are
based
on
valuation.
E
Yeah,
I'm
ready
to
move
it
forward
too.
I
appreciate
you
know
the
work
that's
being
done
in
the
way
and
what
we
hear
back
from
developers
about
how
professional
the
staff
is
and
and
how
we've
set
up
a
system
that
really
works.
Well.
I've
heard
other
people
at
different
events
talking
about
some
concerns
in
other
cities,
and
so
I
think
that's
part
of
it,
and
one
of
the
things
I
think
is
really
smart.
E
Is
the
pre-submittal
support
at
no
cost?
I'm
sure
that
gives
you
a
lot
more
better
discussions
with
with
the
developers
at
the
beginning
and
an
ability
to
work
together,
because
and
knowing
that
you're
trying
to
help
them
do
the
best
that
we
need
for
the
city
and
not
just
to
charge
a
fee,
and
then
you,
you
know,
I
I
think
that's
a
very
smart
thing
to
do,
and
obviously
it
works
well
and
the
increase
is
not
not
that
big.
E
So
I
think
it's
it's
great
and
again
I
think
I
just
hear
so
much
very
positive
things
about
development
services
and
and
developers
coming
in.
Obviously
they
like
to
build
in
bellevue.
So
that's
good,
yeah.
A
Thank
you,
council
member
robertson,.
P
Thanks,
oh,
I
support
the
changes
to
development
services
fees
and
I
agree.
I
think
it's
really
good
that
we
don't.
I
mean
it's
generally,
a
cost
recovery
department,
but
we
do
give
early
support
at
you
know
the
city
absorbs
that
cost
as
part
of
helping
people
get
organized
and
ready
for
their
projects.
So
I
think
that
that's
I
still
support
that.
I've
always
supported
that
and
I'm
comfortable
with
the
changes.
I
do
have
some
questions
about
school
impact
fees
and
you'll.
Forgive
me,
but
I've
been
doing
school
impact
fees
in
my
day.
P
Job
and
I've
learned
a
lot
about
them,
and
so
that's
led
me
to
have
more
questions
about
the
school
impact
fees
that
the
bellevue
city
council
adopts.
So
the
I
know
that
we
have
four
districts
in
our
city.
Bellevue
school
district
does
not
charge
impact
fees.
Lake
washington
does,
though,
and
so
why
are
we
not
collecting
like
impact
fees
for
lake
washington,
school
district.
Q
They
have
not
approached
us,
so
I'm
not
sure
to
be
honest
with
you.
I
don't
know
the
answer
to
that
councilman
robertson.
So.
P
Right
and
we
have
the
authority
to
not
collect
school
impact
fees
if
we
didn't
want
to
order
to
put
caps
on
them.
Our
code
is
written
so
that
we
do
them
a
pass-through
and
we
always
have,
but
we
do
have
the
right
if
we
didn't
want
to
so
the
issaquah
school
district
school
impact
fee
is
very,
very
high.
So
I
am
wondering
whether
the
and
the
other
thing
I
learned
is
that
some
school
districts,
because
cities
have
and
counties
have
the
authority
to
put
caps
on
or
not
pass
them
through.
P
Some
some
school
districts
will
have
different
impact
fee
rates,
depending
on
where
the
houses
that
are
or
departments
that
are
being
built
are
located.
So
my
question-
and
this
is-
I
guess
for
renton
too-
but
isaqua
is
the
one.
That's
so
big
is
whether
every
part
of
the
district
pays.
The
same
impact
fees
as
bellevue
is
being
asked
to
adopt.
W
W
P
They're
all
paying
they're
all
charging
okay,
director
mullins.
What
is
what
percentage
of
your
capital
budget
is
covered
by
the
school
impact
fees,
ooh.
W
P
Yeah
I'd
be
curious
to
know
because
you're,
not
under
the
state
law,
you
can't
use
you
can't
fully
fund
by
impact
fees
and
since
the
rates
are
so
high,
I'm
just
wondering
what
percentage
is
being
funded
by
impact
fees
and
then
a
question
for
mike.
Do
we
have
the
most
recent
capital
facilities
planned
for
these
two
districts
and
are
we
getting
ready
to
adopt
them
because
we
need
to
update
it
every
year
as
part
of
the
plan.
Q
I
believe
so
I
it
hasn't
landed
on
my
desk,
but
I'm
they're
good
about
submitting
their
plan
to
us.
So
I
would
have
to
check
to
see
where
that,
where
that
is,
but
yes,
as
part
of
this
process,
we
do
review
their
plan.
They
submitted
to
us
each
year.
P
All
right,
and
then
I
guess
just
one
final
question
for
the
districts
is
whether
they
have
been
successfully
able
to
spend
all
of
the
impact
fees
within
the
10-year
limitation
period
or
whether
they've
had
to
do
refunds.
W
P
I'd
be
curious
to
know
how
much
like
just
a
percentage
ballpark
of
what
your
capital
projects
are
funded
by
impact
fees
as
well
as
yeah
it'd,
be
good
to
know
with
the
total
collection
each
year
we're
running
out
of
land
to
develop
so
they're,
probably
slowing
down.
I
understand
that
I'm
going
to
be
curious
to
have
that
information
for
for
renton
as
well.
That's
the
end
of
my
questions.
Thank
you.
U
Thank
you
mayor
mike
thanks
to
you
and
your
staff
and
the
services
that
you
provide.
I
support
the
adjustment
for
development
services
in
the
school
impact
fees.
A
Okay,
you
know
I'm
gonna
go
backwards.
I
share
council
member
robertson's
concerns
on
the
high
fees
from
the
issaquah
school
district
and
I
I
think
bellevue
city
of
bellevue
or
our
school
district
did
a
levy
for
replacing
all
our
schools,
and
so
that's,
I
guess,
a
different
way
to
fund
it,
but
that
that
I
would
be
interested
in
looking
at
some
kind
of
a
cat
for
fear
that
they
could
go
up
again
significantly.
A
That
seems
like
a
lot
to
put
on
the
people
in
our
city
in
just
those
areas,
so
mike
I'm.
I
appreciate
your
thoughts
on
that
and
then
the
other
thing
is,
you
know
you,
you
guys
have
just
knocked
it
out
of
the
park
with
your
ability
to
issue
permits
during
covet.
I
think
you
issued
more
than
you
ever
have
in
2020,
so
it's
been
remarkable
and
that
shift
to
online
permitting
right
before
you
had
to
do
it
online.
I
mean
that
was
a
that
was
a
game
changer
for
the
city
of
bellevue.
A
But
anyway
do
you
have
any
comments
or
thoughts
on
if
we
wanted
to
to
look
at
what
a
cap
would
the
impacts
of
a
cap,
and
we
wanted
to
do
that
down
the
road.
Q
So
that
is
not
something
that
we
have
investigated
to
date
so
to
follow
that
path,
we
I
would
need
to
consult
with
the
city
attorney's
office
and
the
city
manager's
office,
to
figure
out
what's
the
process
that
we
would
need
to
go
through
to
enter
into
that
discussion,
I
guess
with
the
council
and
and
with
the
school
district.
So
if,
if
the
council
is
interested
in
pursuing
that,
we
can
look
at
that.
Q
Maybe
that
would
be
something
we
think
about
we're
kind
of
short
on
time
this
year,
but
council's
discretion
on
on
how
you
would
want
to
proceed.
A
Well,
I'd
be
interested
in
passing
this
now
and
within
a
year
examining
the
potential
for
that
and
council
members
on
brought
up
a
good
point
too.
Both
of
these
ideas.
We
can
look
at
the
new
year
and
prioritize
how
we
want
to
do
things
so,
mr
miyake,
maybe
you
could
make
a
list
for
when
we
next
year,
okay,
great
okay,
well,
could
is
there
a
motion
deputy.
G
A
O
Yes,
mayor
robinson,
council
members.
The
third
item
is
the
2020
annual
comprehensive
plan
amendments.
By
way
back
on
each
year,
the
city
conducts
an
annual
comprehensive
plan.
Amendment
process
this
year,
two
recommended
amendments
are
being
transmitted
to
council
this
evening
with
action
to
occur
at
a
future
meeting.
The
first
recommendation
is
for
a
map
amendment
for
the
dash
glendale
and
evergreen
court
property
on
northeast
state
street
in
wilberton,
and
the
second
recommendation
relates
to
multi-modal
concurrency
policies
and
the
comprehensive
transportation
project
list.
O
I
just
let
the
council
know
a
significant
amount
of
review
and
analysis
has
occurred
through
both
the
city's
planning,
commission
and
transportation.
Commission
tonight's
staff
is
seeking
the
council's
direction
to
return
at
a
future
date
with
ordinances.
Approving
the
2021
comp
plan
amendment
so
joining
us
this
evening
is
emile
king
assistant,
director
and
tara
johnson,
comprehensive
planning
manager
both
from
the
community
development
department,
as
well
as
kevin
mcdonald.
Our
senior
planner
from
the
transportation
department
also
joining
us.
There
are
mohamed
male
kushin.
A
A
S
Thank
you
for
the
introduction
city
manager
good
evening,
mayor
deputy
mayor
members
of
council,
as
the
city
manager,
noted
staff
and
representatives
from
the
planning,
commission
and
transportation
commission
are
here
tonight
to
transmit
their
recommendations
as
part
of
our
annual
2021
comprehensive
plan.
Amendment
process.
I
wanted
to
start
with
just
a
few
opening
comments.
S
Bellevue's
comprehensive
plan
is
a
very
foundational
document
for
the
city
and
amendments
use
of
a
thoughtful
process
that
we
hear
about
tonight.
The
amendments
you'll
be
presented
tonight
will
help
further
two
important
topics.
S
The
dash
amendment
has
a
direct
tie-in
to
affordable
housing
production
within
walking
distance
to
light
rail,
and
the
second
set
of
amendments
relate
to
the
city
being
more
efficient
and
effective
with
our
transportation
project
list,
as
well
as
integrating
multimodal
mobility
into
our
city
planning
efforts.
So
I'd
like
to
hand
things
over
to
tara,
who
will
start
out
with
our
presentation.
Thank
you.
X
Thank
you
emil
good
evening,
mayor
robinson,
deputy
mayor,
new
in-house
council
members
and
members
of
the
public
just
wanted
to
provide
you
with.
We
have
a
presentation
prepared
and
thank
you
mayor
for
providing
that
that
initial
direction
on
how
we're
structuring
our
presentation
tonight
so
we'll
start
off
with
providing
you
with
an
overview
on
some
of
the
decision
criteria,
our
process
and
then
and
then
start
discussion
on
the
glendale
application.
X
So
tonight,
the
purpose
of
our
of
our
study
session
this
evening
is
to
present
the
planning
commission's
recommendations
on
the
2021
plan.
Amendments
for
your
review
after
we've
held
a
public
hearing
with
the
planning
commission
in
july.
X
The
city
council's
subsequent
action
on
these
recommendations
amends
the
comprehensive
plan
which
is
emil
mentioned,
is
bellevue's
foundational
policy
document
and
for
state
law.
We
can
only
amend
the
comprehensive
plan
once
a
year
under
gma.
Our
bellevue
city
code
also
allows
property
owners
to
propose
site-specific
comprehensive
plan
amendments.
X
Site-Specific
amendments
then,
could
lead
to
rezoning
to
ensure
that
development
regulations
are
consistent
and
implement
the
comprehensive
plan
city
council
initiated
amendments
do
address
broader
comp
plan
policy
implementation
and,
of
course,
this
year's
includes
transportation
policy
amendments.
X
X
It's
a
little
bit
on
how
we're
going
to
structure
our
presentation,
we're
just
going
to
touch
on
the
final
review
criteria,
which
I'm
sure
council
is
very
familiar
with
and
then
we'll
switch
to
an
overview
on
the
dash
glendale
proposal
and
the
planning
commission
recommendation
and
then
and
then
pause
for
city
council
to
ask
questions
and
provide
staff
with
direction.
X
These
are
the
criteria
that
the
planning
commission
used
to
base
their
recommendations
on
an
application
has
to
be
found
to
meet
all
of
the
decision
criteria
in
order
to
be
approved
after
thorough
study
notice
and
the
final
review
public
hearing,
the
planning
commission
recommended
approval
of
the
2021
amendments
because
they
found
that
the
application
met.
All
these
five
decision
criteria.
X
The
two
amendments
that
we
have
before
you
this
evening
are
dash
glendale
and
evergreen
court,
which
is
a
request
for
about
seven
and
a
half
acres
located
on
two
two
parcels
in
the
wilberton
northeast
eighth
street
area,
going
from
multi-family
medium
to
neighborhood,
mixed
use,
and,
as
we've
mentioned
in
our
initial
comments,
the
intent
is
to
provide
additional
opportunity
to
add
more
housing
density
on
the
site
to
provide
affordable
housing.
X
The
second
set
of
amendments
are
city
initiate
initiated
amendments
relating
to
transportation
and
there
there
are
two
groups
of
them.
The
first
amendment
entails
repealing
the
comprehensive
transportation
project
list
from
volume
2
of
the
comp
plan,
and
then
it
also
includes
amending
the
transportation
element
to
incorporate
a
multimodal
approach.
So
there
are
several
policies
that
staff
will
be
going
over
with
you
that
were
the
work
of
the
transportation
commission
and
then
recommended
by
the
planning
commission.
T
T
The
planning
commission
recommends
by
a
6-0
vote
that
the
city
council
adopt
the
dash
calendar
and
evergreen
court
proposal
to
amend
the
land
use
map
designation
of
two
parcels:
totaling
7.6
acres
in
the
bilberton
north
east,
8th
street,
sub-area
from
multi-family
medium
to
neighborhood
mix
use.
The
commission
found
that
the
application
satisfy
all
land
use,
co-decision
criteria
for
final
review
of
the
comprehensive
plan.
Amendment
land
use
code,
20.30.
X
I
I
did
want
to
also
touch
very
briefly
on
some
of
the
community
engagement
that
occurred
throughout
the
process.
Till
now
we
received
a
total
of
19
letters
of
I
believe
they
were
all
letters
of
support,
and
we
also
heard
testimony
from
four
speakers
at
the
public
hearing
in
july.
All
in
support
of
of
the
proposal.
X
And
with
that
staff
is
requesting
that
council
provide
direction
on
the
ordinance
and
provide
us
with
an
opportunity
to
come
back
to
you
at
a
future
meeting
with
an
ordinance
for
approval.
A
Okay,
great
thank
you,
councilmember
barksdale
I'll
start
again
with
you
on
this
one.
If
you
have
any
comments
or
questions.
U
No
comments
other
than
a
support,
the
recommendation
and
bringing
back
an
ordinance.
Thank
you.
G
Yeah,
I
too
support
the
two
recommendations.
I
just
wanted
to
be
clear
from
thara.
There
wasn't
any
negative
feedback,
then
it
was
all
supportive
both
in
the
terms
of
the
the
hearing,
as
well
as
the
final
review
of
comments,
correct.
E
A
A
A
Y
Thanks
emil,
sorry
about
that,
I'd
like
to
introduce
the
transportation
amendments
for
the
comprehensive
plan
for
us
for
2021.
There
are
two
of
them.
First
is
the
the
comprehensive
plan
amendment
to
repeal
the
comprehensive
transportation
project
list
from
volume
2
of
the
comprehensive
plan?
Y
The
the
reason
that
this
comprehensive
plan
was
initiated
was
because,
back
in
2015,
the
council
consolidated
all
of
the
transportation
projects
live
that
were
housed
in
various
places
of
the
comprehensive
plan
into
one
comprehensive
transportation
project
list,
and
while
that
is
useful
to
have
as
as
a
source
of
project
projects
for
the
tfp.
Y
It's
duplicative
to
the
work
that
the
council
and
the
commission
do
on
the
transportation
improvement
program
that
the
tip
upon
recommendation
from
the
transportation
commission
after
study
sessions
and
a
public
hearing
is
adopted
annually
by
the
city
council
and
therefore,
because
it
is
adopted
annually
it.
It
becomes
more
responsive
to
to
planning
work
and
engineering
work
that
go
into
developing
the
project
list
and,
and
importantly,
projects
in
the
tip
are
eligible
for
for
grant
funding
to
supplement
the
cip.
Y
Our
the
next
slide
covers
the
the
approach
to
multimodal
concurrency
in
the
policy
recommendations
for
that.
The
the
the
growth
management
act,
of
course
requires
cities
to
support
land
use
with
the
transportation
system
that
meets
the
demand
and
its
concurrence.
Concurrent
with
that
demand,
the
consequences
of
not
meeting
concurrency
is
that
a
jurisdiction
may
not
approve
new
development.
So
this
is
a
really
important
threshold
to
meet.
We
want
to
maintain
concurrency.
Y
A
G
Y
Important
to
to
realize
that
this
amendment
to
the
comprehensive
plan
related
to
the
transportation
element
relate
to
the
the
comprehensive
plan
as
being
a
living
document,
one
that
evolves
with
the
changing
needs
of
the
community.
To
kind
of
characterize
that
I
went
through
the
comprehensive
plan
and
looked
you
know,
pre-growth
management
act
in
the
in
the
1980s.
The
comprehensive
plan
spoke
to
ensuring
that
traveling
on
arterials
should
not
be
inconvenient
or
time
consuming
or
unsafe,
and
surely
that
that
that
policy
has
served
well
over
the
years.
But
in
in
1993.
Y
So
downtown
had
a
different
level
of
service
expectation
than
say
eastgate
or
east
bellevue,
and
then
in
the
the
major
update
of
the
comprehensive
plan
in
2015,
the
council
adopted
policy
that
said
that
that
provided
direction
to
establish
a
multimodal
level
of
service
approach
to
concurrency,
with
measures,
standards
and
targets
for
each
mode
of
transportation,
and
in
this
update
of
the
comprehensive
plan
in
2021,
the
transportation
commission
and
the
planning
commission
have
recommended
policy
and
amendments
to
securely
embed,
a
multimodal
approach
to
concurrency
so
well,
you
know
the
transportation
commission
is
is
is
charged
with
supporting
planned
land
use.
Y
The
policy
evolves
with
the
changing
needs
of
the
community,
so
the
next
slide.
Tara
relates
to
the
comprehensive
plan
policies
recognizing
that
policy
amendments
were
needed.
The
council
initiated
a
comprehensive
plan
amendment
in
in
april
and
directed
the
transportation
commission
to
provide
a
policy
recommendation
that
would
broaden
the
concurrency
standards
that
would
include
all
of
the
modes
and
after
several
study
sessions,
the
transportation
commission
prepared
a
recommendation
for
transportation
elements.
Y
Next
slide,
so
just
a
little
bit
of
context
for
multimodal
concurrency,
the
the
transportation
commission
has
been
charged
by
the
city
council
to
create
the
first
mobility
implementation
plan
for
the
city
and
that
mobility
implementation
plan
that
the
commission
is
just
about
wrapped
up
work
on
right
now
will
provide
a
framework
to
build
a
complete
and
connected
network
of
transportation
for
all
modes.
It'll
describe
the
ultimate
transportation
system.
J
I'll
be
I'll
be
fairly
quick.
Everybody
can
read
the
slide
so
good
evening.
Council
members,
thank
you
for
having
us
today.
We
have
what
I
wanted
to
share
about
this.
Is
the
commission
made
significant
efforts
to
create
a
simple
and
clear
set
of
policies
that
that
would
stand
on
their
own
and
would
help
citizens
understand
what
this
was
about.
J
T
Yeah,
thank
you
so
much.
I
first
want
to
say
thank
you,
the
transportation
chair
and
the
committee
for
doing
an
absolute
amazing
job,
providing
us
with
all
of
the
information
that
we
needed
to
make
our
decision.
Y
Tara
next
paulus
next
slide.
Okay,
let
let
me
briefly
address
public
comments
that
both
the
transportation
commission
and
the
planning
commission
received
both
the
bellevue
downtown
association
and
the
chamber
of
commerce
received
briefings
on
the
material
prior
to
recommendation
and
and
both
of
those
organizations
support
the
the
policy
recommendations.
Y
We
also
provided
briefings
to
the
east
bellevue
community
council
and
discussed
the
proposal
with
the
east
side.
Transportation
association
and
both
of
those
organizations
are
opposed
to
the
the
policy
recommendation
and
they
are
specifically
opposed
to
the
policy
amendments
for
tr2
and
I'll
discuss
that
in
a
second
and
various
public
comments
and
letters
addressed
to
the
both
commissions
had
various
degrees
of
support
and
opposition,
and
most
of
that
opposition
again
was
targeted
against
policy
recommendation
for
tr
too.
Y
So,
as
as
the
as
the
council
is
aware,
the
recommended
amendments
to
policy
tr-2
have
drawn
some
concerns
and
while
staff
continues
to
support
the
planning,
commission
and
transportation
commission
recommendation
for
policy
tr-2,
we've
offered
alternative
language
to
council
for
that
policy.
Y
Y
X
Thank
you,
kevin,
and
so
at
this
point,
we've
provided
council,
with
an
overview
of
the
transportation
amendments
and
the
planning
commission
recommendation
and
the
specific
recommendation
to
amend
policy
tr2
that
came
from
the
planning
commission
and,
at
this
point,
we're
requesting
council
to
direct
staff
for
us
to
come
back
to
you
at
a
future
meeting
with
an
ordinance
for
the
2021
transportation.
Related
amendments
to
the
comprehensive
plan.
A
Okay,
thank
you
very
much.
We
will
start
oh
and
thank
you,
chair
marciante,
for
being
here
tonight
and
chair
malcusion
for
still
being
here
with
us.
Thank
you.
So
we'll
start
with
council
member
robertson,
followed
by
council
member
barksdale
deputy
mayor
stokes
liaison
and
myself.
P
Thank
you.
This
is
and
thank
you
to
the
planning
commission
and
the
transportation
commission.
I
was
as
liaison
to
transportation
commission.
Of
course,
I
was
involved
with
the
heavy
work
that
the
transportation
commission
did
before
handing
this
off
to
the
planning
commission,
and
I
think
they
did
it.
They
had
a
lot
of
thoughtful
dialogue.
P
They
did
a
lot
of
good
work
and
I
really
support
the
city
moving
to
a
multimodal
level
of
service
and
concur
for
cryptocurrency.
I
think
it.
First
of
all,
it
reflects
and
counts
all
modes,
whereas
before
we
were
only
counting
vehicle
traffic,
we
weren't
counting
people
on
transit
people
on
bikes,
people
on
on
on
foot
people
in
maybe
some
of
those
employer
run
shuttles,
and
so
this
will
actually
measure
the
different
modes
and
gives
credit
to
them.
P
For
example,
amazon
is
only
expecting
50
of
their
employees
to
drive
to
work.
So
that's
a
much
much
higher
mode
split
than
we
have
seen
historically
in
bellevue,
with
the
coming
of
light
rail
with,
hopefully
improved
bus
transit,
we're
going
to
see
a
lot
more
people
opting
for
other
modes
of
travel
besides
vehicles.
So
I
think
it's
really
important
to
measure
that
and
to
take
it
into
account
when
deciding
whether
a
project
meets
concurrency.
P
So
I
think
that
that's
really
good
the
other.
The
other
thing
to
the
other
reason
I
support
this
is
as
we
talk
about
improving
transportation
and
getting
more
people
where
they
need
to
go,
there's
only
so
much
pavement
that
we
can
put
down.
So
what
can
we
do
to
get
more
people
through?
We
can
use
the
payment
we
have
pavement.
We
have
more
effectively,
which
is
one
of
the
things
we
did
with
our
smart,
our
smart
transportation
system,
our
smart
traffic
lights.
P
We
can
add
more
pavement
or
we
can
also
get
people
to
shift
to
other
modes,
and
bellevue
has
historically
done
all
three.
So
when
we
had
some
members
of
the
public
being
very
worried
about
removing
the
word
congestion
from
the
draft
policies,
I
was
not
tremendously
worried
about
it,
because
I
knew
as
a
council
member
that
we're
going
to
continue
to
make
improvements
to
our
roadways
for
all
modes,
including
vehicles,
including
bikes,
including
pedestrians,
and
so
and
and
we
have
a
levy
in
place
that
is
partially
for
congestion
in
the
neighborhoods.
P
But
I
do
understand
that
the
perception
by
the
public
was
that
we
were
not
we're
going
to
take
our
eye
off
that
ball,
which
we
were
not
so
I'm
also
supportive
and
thank
the
planning
commission
for
also
having
thoughtful
dialogue
about
this.
I'm
also
supportive
of
adding
that
language
back
into
tr2,
and
then
we
can
talk
about
how
we
might
amend
that
later
tonight.
But
you
know,
as
long
as
we
are
continuing
to
move
towards
a
multi-modal
system
and
multimodal
solutions
for
the
city
of
bellevue
in
the
future.
P
U
All
right,
thank
you,
mayor
just
want
to
echo
those
sentiments
by
councilmember
robertson
and
say
thank
you
to
the
planning
commission
for
alpha
dialogue
and
the
transportation
commission
for
visiting
us
in
the
planning
commission,
and
also
I
support
the
recommendation.
Similar
reasons
given
and
also
just
given
all
the
conversations
we've
had
about
multimodal
the
importance
of
multimodal
transportation
and
and
I
support
the
the
motion
that
will
come
later
with
the
alternative
language
based
on
the
discussion.
Thank
you.
G
Thank
you,
mayor
yeah.
I
want
to
echo
the
accolades
great
great
job
to
the
transportation,
commission
and
staff,
as
well
as
planning,
commission
and
staff.
This
is
great
work
and
I
fully
agree
that
you
know
bellevue,
you
know
needs
that
multi-modal
concurrency
standard
that
is
tied
to
land
use
patterns,
and
you
know
those
urban
land,
districts
and
the
standard
should
reflect
those
urban
levels
of
service
and
will
likely
be
calibrated
towards
person,
trips
assigned
to
transit
and
non-motorized
modes
of
travel
as
well.
So
I'm
really
happy
with
this.
G
I
think
it's
it's
fantastic
work
happy
to
move
this
forward.
I
also,
though,
would
like
to
in
regards
to
the
amendment
and
back
insert
back
the
trt
tr2
language.
However,
I
would
also
like
to
bring
forward
to
my
colleagues
that,
instead
of
manage
that
we
actually
say
reduce
so
strive
to
manage
or
sorry
strive
to
reduce
congestion
versus
manage,
but
I'll
wait
for
the
appropriate
time
to
bring
that
forward,
but
again
great
work
and
thank
you
so
much.
E
I
too
appreciate
very
much
the
presentations
by
staff
and
the
great
work
by
both
planning
and
transportation
commission
and
also
the
comments
of
my
fellow
council
members
who
have
gone
before
me
here.
I
do
I
agree
in
the
recommendations
I
and
I
don't
think
we
need
to
change
the
wording
in
that,
and
I'm
very
very
excited
to
finally
understand
that
justin
is
the
problem
is
just
as
a
sim
or
a
description.
It's
not
a
way
to
make
anything
any
change
anything,
so
I
think
we're
moving
on.
E
I
do
think
it's
a
very,
very
comprehensive
look
at
this
and
it's
taking
into
account
the
changes
saw
in
2021
and
going
forward
for
the
next.
You
know
10
years
or
more
so,
and
I'm
not.
E
I
don't
think
we
need
to
change
the
language.
I
don't
think
manage
is
actually
a
very
active
and
and
comprehensive
word.
Whereas
of
relief
is
again
it's
kind
of
promising.
Like
you
know,
congestion
is
the
problem,
but
it
really
doesn't.
It
doesn't
think
that
have
the
oomph
for
the
the
meat
to
move
things
forward,
but
that's
just
kind
of
semantics.
E
So
I
I
think
it's
a
great
job
and
I
think
this
will
be
a
huge
improvement
and
the
fact
that
we
have
such
strong
support
from
all
aspects
of
the
community
and
I've
talked
to
a
lot
of
people.
I
think
that
the
community
as
a
whole
supports
this
type
of
approach
and
will
be
benefit
from
it.
There
are
few
people
who
want
to
stick
to
the
old
ways,
but
things
are
changing
and
I
think
councilmember
robertson
brought
kind
of
that
whole
concept
up
in
a
very
good
way,
and
I
subscribed
to
that.
So.
C
Thank
you
very
mayor.
You
know
this
goes
way
back.
30
years
ago
we
established
transportation,
commission
and
concurrency.
I
was
on
the
first
transportation
commission
that
was
established.
In
fact,
I
changed
it,
and
so
we
haven't
changed
the
concurrency
until
now.
I
think
it's
very
important
because
it
can
actually
give
us
the
policy
direction
that
we
all
follow.
It's
a
serious,
very
serious,
very
important
for
all
of
us.
C
That's
why
I
think
the
transmitting
commission
and
the
planning
commission
pays
much
attention
to
actually
working
at
it,
and
I
I
want
to
express
my
appreciation
for
training
and
planning
chair
and
transportation
championship.
I
would
happen
to
be
the
liaison
to
the
transplanting
commission
when
we
started
looking
at
this,
and
I
think
we
all
support.
I
personally
include
multi-modal
mode
of
transparent
system.
It's
a
commitment,
we're
making.
So
you
know
I
think
it's
very
important
to
do
that
and
we're
not
recognizing
it
and
the
way
we
looked
at
us.
C
You
know
with
michael
andrew
singh
locker's
team.
As
the
director
we
decided,
the
you
know,
the
multi-mode
implementation
mobility
information
plan
is
the
way
to
go,
because
you
put
all
the
pieces
together,
not
just
isolate
the
talking
about
each
piece
and
that's
not
connected
this
way.
It's
really
good.
It's
efficient,
it
doesn't
have
to
go
through
all
the
old
ci.
You
know
the
we're
talking
about
the
list
of
you
know,
projects,
lists
and
all
that
stuff.
So
I
think
the
planning
commission
recognized
it.
C
Transportation
commission
worked
hard
on
it
took
a
number
of
years.
I'm
very
glad
that
you
know
the
president
liaison
robertson
works
hard
to
guide
and
direct
them.
I
think
this
is
a
wonderful
thing,
so
I
am
really
happy
that
we
are
retaining
the
congestion
as
an
important
piece,
but
also
it's
very
important
that
we're
making
commitment
to
multimodal
so
both
should
work.
Both
are
part
of
our
transparency
system,
especially
in
terms
of
all
the
things
that
other
council
members
talked
about,
and
the
staff
has
been
talking
about
and
the
both
commissions
talking
about.
C
So
I
would
like
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
minimize
one
and
take
something
away
from
the
other
to
make
one
works,
so
I
like
to
retain
what
we
have,
which
is
reduce
congestion
and
improve
multimodal
transportation
system.
So
I
support
thought-
and
I
would
like
to
recommend
this-
is
the
right
vision,
the
right
policy
and
there's
a
concern
somebody
expressed.
I
just
want
to
throw
it
out
there.
Well,
this
may
not
be
possible,
so
why
do
it?
It's
just
use
the
word
managed.
C
So
no
implementation
is
practical
that
we
can
do
whatever
we
have
to
do,
but
in
terms
of
policy
we
got
to
be
bold.
We
got
to
be
courageous.
We
got
to
aim
at
what
we
want
to
do
and
I
believe
the
future
with
all
the
things
that
we're
doing
multimodal
encouraging
technology
and
all
the
stuff
we're
working
on
improving
up
here,
doing
it
there
and
we'll
change
out.
Whatever
mode
of
you
know,
behavior,
we
will
get
to
the
point
that
we
will
achieve
what
our
goal
and
the
policy
aim
at.
C
F
It's
not
only
about
intersections
it's
about
corridors.
We
certainly
learned
that
in
that
corridor
study
in
eastgate
that
we
did
a
couple
of
years
ago.
So
I'm
glad
to
see
that
that
thinking
is
in
here
about
how
do
we
create
complete
and
connected
corridors
thoroughfares
networks
throughout
the
city,
because
mobility
and
multimodal
it's
well
over
time
for
us
to
take
on
that
piece
and
part
of
it
too,
is
I
think
it's
really
timely.
F
The
light
rail
coming
to
bellevue
is
going
to
be
quite
transformational,
and
so,
as
we
look
at
creating
the
kind
of
options
for
our
community
really
looking
at
how
we
make
sure
that
our
multimodal
works,
as
well
as
possible,
will
feed
into
our
complete
streets
our
vision,
zero,
our
safe
systems
approach,
all
of
the
things
that
transportation
is
doing.
That
is
really
making
sure
that
that
whether
you
are
in
a
car,
a
bike
you're
walking
you're
in
a
wheelchair
that
you're
able
to
actually
get
around
our
city
as
they
feel
is
possible.
F
I
also
have
to
say
that
I
think
one
of
the
best
things
is
also
using
the
2022
transportation
improvement
program,
because
I
do
remember
laboriously
going
through
all
of
the
project
list
when
I
was
on
transportation,
commission
and
I
think
our
eyes
were
bugging
out.
So
the
fact
that
we're
actually
simplifying
that
and
using
the
tip
kudos.
I
think
that
is
really
great
and
then.
F
Lastly,
I
guess
for
me
on
tr2,
I
might
say
that
having
both
pieces
in
there
is
important,
but
since
we're
going
to
a
multi-modal
level
of
service,
I
might
recommend
for
my
colleagues
that
we
lead
with
the
second
part
of
the
the
proposed
language
which
is
improve
the
multimodal
transportation
system,
while
striving
to
manage
congestion.
F
And
so
while
I
I've
been
thinking
about
whether
we
manage
or
reduce
my
sense
is
that
we
are
continuing
to
grow
so
whether
we,
whether
a
win,
is
managing
congestion
or
truly
reducing
is
probably
one
that
we
should
have
some
conversations
around
here.
But
I
would
lead
with
the
second
part
of
what
was
being
proposed,
which
is
improving
the
multimodal
transportation
while
striving
to
on
the
congestion.
Thank
you
thank.
A
You
council,
members
on
yeah.
I
I'm
excited
about
this
too.
I
feel
like
we're
really
looking
at
transportation
as
a
whole,
and
you
know
when
the
when
the
roads
don't
work
on
our
major
arterials
and
highways.
That's
when
we
get
the
congestion
in
our
neighborhoods
and
the
back
up,
and
I
think
it's
important
to
keep
that
congestion
aspect
in
this.
A
But
I,
like
council
members,
on's
recommendation,
I'm
fine
with
relieve
reduce
manage
whatever,
but
I
I
I'm
fine
with
kind
of
prioritizing
the
multi
modal
transportation
system
first,
and
I
just
really
appreciate
the
the
holistic
look
at
our
transportation
system
and
the
value
put
on
all
the
different
modes
of
transportation
that
are
becoming
available
in
bellevue.
A
And
I
I
really
look
forward
to
completing
our
ped
bike
network
so
that,
wherever
you
are
in
bellevue,
it's
safe
to
have
choices
on
how
you
get
around
so
deputy
mayor,
I'm
gonna,
let
you
be
creative
and
let's
see
first,
we
need
to
make
a
motion
about
the
the
transportation
amendments
and
then
you
want
to
add
in
tr2
in
a
way
that
you've
decided,
the
majority
of
the
council
might
feel
comfortable
with
so.
G
G
Okay,
then
I'll
move
to
direct
staff
to
bring
back
an
ordinance
for
council
consideration
action
in
a
future
meeting.
Approving
the
2021
annual
cpa
for
transportation,
related
policy
and
project
list
amendments,
as
recommended
by
the
planning
commission,
accept
policy
tr2,
which
will
be
amended
to
read,
improve
the
multimodal
transportation
system
while
striving
to
reduce
congestion.
E
C
C
I
agree
100
that
both
are
important,
we're
talking
about
the
complete
transportation
system.
Madam
mayor,
we
don't
know
what
the
future
will
be
for
sure.
Okay
and
I
like
to
not
have
one
over
the
other.
You
know
there's
seven
of
us,
so
we're
going
to
have
different
opinions
and
150
000
of
us
involved.
So
I
don't
want
to
divide.
C
H
P
Thanks
so
I
appreciate
deputy
mayor
putting
the
improve
the
multimodal
transportation
system.
First,
I
think
that's
a
good
revision.
I've
been
fiddling
with
the
language
looking
at
slide,
14
and
thinking
it
through.
As
I've
listened
to
all
my
colleagues
and
deputy
mayor,
did
you
say
striving?
Was
it
ing.
P
Actually
recall
right
now,
whatever,
if
you
said
striving,
I
just
want
to
match
the
tents,
I
would
add
to
the
end
of
congestion
and
improving
the
tr,
the
travel
experience
for
all
users.
I
really
liked
that
turn
of
phrase
in
tr-2,
the
one,
the
transportation
commission.
I
think
that
it
captures
a
lot
and
adds
to
it.
So
with
that
friendly
amendment
of
the
amendment,
I
would
like
to
offer
that
as
well.
Second,.
U
All
right,
thank
you
mayor,
so
I
do
like
councilman
rosanne's
change
or
recommendation
to
put
improving
first
and
then,
if
I
would
also
councilmember
robertson's
suggestion
to
put
it
at
you
in
improving
the
experience
in
terms
of
manage
versus
reduce.
U
I
I
guess
the
way
that
I
think
about
that
is
reduce,
carries
a
bit
more
focus
and
my
understanding
of
in
terms
of
the
intent
is
to
make
sure
that
it's
still
acknowledged,
but
we're
still
focusing
on
the
bigger
picture
of
multi-modal,
and
so
I
wouldn't
want
us
to
get
caught
up
in
reduction
as
opposed
like
over-indexing
or
reduction,
and
sort
of
keeping
the
focus
on
the
bigger
picture.
So
my
recommendation
would
be
for
proceeding
with
manage.
A
Okay,
so
what
I
have
is
to
improve
the
multi-billable
transportation
system
and
reduce
slash,
manage
congestion
and
then
what
did
councilmember
robertson
add
so.
P
I
added,
let
me
just
I
had
it
written
down,
would
it
be
like.
A
S
C
A
C
A
A
That's
what
I'm
hearing
as
a
friendly
amendment!
Does
that
consistent
with
not
exactly
okay.
E
A
Okay,
so
we
will
offer
it
up
as
one
either
reduce
or
manage
we'll
vote
on
it
and
assume
that
and
then
we'll
take
up
the
other
way
if
we
need
to
so
councilmember
lee,
oh
well,
first
of
all,
are
there
any
other
questions
from
anybody
or
comments
council
members
on.
F
A
Manage
I
heard
that
from
councilmember
stokes
and
I
heard
it
from
councilmember
barksdale
as
well
so
deputy
mayor?
Did
you
have
a
comment
or
question
or
anything.
G
No,
I
think
we
should
continue.
Let's.
C
A
C
A
We
are
adding
tr2
in
it
to
say,
improve
the
multimodal
transportation
system
and
strive
to
manage
congestion
and
impr
and
improve
the
quality
of
travel
experience
for
all
users.
A
A
Okay-
okay,
goodness
I
I
really,
I'm
gonna
go
with
staff
recommendations
since
they're
the
ones
who
have
to
do
the
work,
so
we're
gonna
keep
with
manage
so
deputy
mayor.
Do
you
have
the
full
tr2
amendment.
A
So
but.
C
We
have
not
talked
about
this
last
one
that
councilmember
robertson
proposed.
What
what
have
we
talked
about.
It
all
agree
that
this
is
the
thing
that
we
want
to
include.
A
A
A
Okay,
so
deputy
mayor,
why
don't
you
make
that
motion
again.
G
Okay,
certainly
I
moved
to
direct
staff
to
bring
back
an
ordinance
for
council
consideration
in
action
at
a
future
meeting
approving
the
2021
annual
cpa
for
transportation-related
policy
and
project
list
amendments,
as
recommended
by
the
planning
commission.
Second,.
A
A
A
Okay,
I'm
looking
for
here's
here
I'll
make
it
easy,
I'm
looking
for
a
motion
that
states
to
improve
improve
the
multimodal
transportation
system.
G
C
P
You
were
sure,
meaning
that
was
that
was
a
proposal
that
was
in
the
tr2
as
proposed
by
the
transportation
commission.
It
didn't
have
anything
about
congestion.
It
said,
improve
the
multimodal
transportation
system
and
the
quality
of
travel
experience
for
all
users,
so
making
sure
that
when
people
are
traveling
in
bellevue,
regardless
of
mode
that
it's
a
safe,
comfortable
experience
so
chair
marciante,
would
you
like
to
weigh
in
on
on
that
on
where
the
transportation
commission
discussion
was
on
the
quality
of
travel
experience
for
all
users?
P
I
I
do
remember,
council,
member
ting,
I
think
was
or
commissioner
ting
was
very
much
supportive
of
that
language.
But
could
you
I
don't
really
remember
the
full
debate.
J
Yeah
and
you're
correct
council
member,
I
mean
chair,
it's
really
late.
J
The
council,
commissioner
ting,
was
the
one
that
actually
came
up
with
that
language,
and
it
comes
from
a
lot
of
conversations
that
we
have.
The
transportation
network
is
layered
and
so
we're
trying
to
find
the
best
experience
for
each
mode
in
which,
when
you
have
a
very
heavy
trafficked,
quarter
a
heavy
arterial.
J
You
don't
feel
as
a
pedestrian
as
safe,
perhaps,
and
so
you
tr
rather
have
a
different
route
as
a
pedestrian
that
feels
better
and
so
feels
this
is
we
talk
about
a
lot
about
how
transportation
network
feels,
because
it's
not
only
is
it
safe,
but
does
it
feel
safe
for
a
pedestrian
for
a
bicyclist?
And
so
it's
just
a
topic
that
we've
been
discussing
in
terms
of
how
we
feel
my
my
travel
experiences.
J
You
know
you
might
not
mind
if
you
get
one
minute
added
in
to
traffic,
but
if
you
have
to
sit
one
minute
at
a
light,
it
feels
a
lot
worse.
So,
that's
why
we
talk
a
lot
back
and
forth
on
what
the
travel
experience
feels
like
for
users
rather
than
and
that's
where
we
try
to
focus
on
rather
than
just
you
know,
given
that
we
don't
quite
always
understand
the
technical
numbers.
So
that's
the
way
we
we
talk
about
it.
Does
that
help.
J
A
Very
much
okay,
so
we've
had
a
second
we're
on
the
vote.
All
those
in
favor.
C
C
A
C
A
C
A
He's
asking
me
and
he's
making
sure
he's
asking
if
he
can
make
a
friendly
motion
and
he
can,
but
it
needs
to
be
seconded.
So
if
there's
no
second,
we
will
proceed
with
the
vote
as
we
are
going.
Thank
you.
So
all
those
in
favor
of
the
tr2
language
is
proposed,
say
I
I
any
opposed
okay,
so
that
passes.
Thank
you.
A
O
That's
quite
okay,
given
the
hour
I'd
like
to
just
turn
over
to
to
lacey
jane
our
interim
director
and
under
governmental
affairs,
lacy
jane.
Would
you
like
to
pick
this
up.
Z
Z
So
tonight
it's
just
coming
to
you
as
a
as
an
fyi,
so
that
you
have
an
opportunity
to
ask
questions
and
then
we
will
include
it.
On
your
november
1st
consent.
Calendar
staff
does
recommend
approving
the
agreement
next
week
and
I'm
available.
If
you
all,
have
any
questions
and
that's
it
from
me,
mayor.
